Submissions are now open for the fifth edition of First Cut‘s Youth Music Video Competition. The annual competition offers 5 directors between the ages of 18 to 23 the opportunity to create a music video for an up and coming Irish act under the mentorship of director Brendan Canty.
The selected filmmakers will take part in a day-long hands-on workshop with Brendan Canty, T.J. O’Grady Peyton and Loclainn McKenna on Friday January 3rd in Cork before being paired up with an artist. Previous years’ line-ups included Kobina, AboveDat and LeGalaxie.

The winning submissions will be screened at First Cut! Youth Film Festival in March 2020.
