Why are you interested in being a CREATE Programmer?
My name is Michael, I am an upcoming local artist from South East London, Greenwich. I’m sixteen and my hobbies are music, playing football, acting and planning events/plays/etc. I have great passion for music. The event we are working on
is not only for the youths out there, but also for everyone who loves
music, from all ages.
I live in Greenwich which is a place for site seeing, you’d see loads of tourists in Greenwich due to the attractions like Cutty sark, charming restaurants, good jobs and especially the museum.
I like the museum most because you’d see different kinds of things there that are interesting and you could also learn more to do with history.
Furthermore, I also make music , and see the event as a chance for people like me to perform and show that the youths have got talents. I normally perform at different shows such as the 'peoples day' which was held in Lewisham. I also have 2 mixtapes out, which I think would be useful when it comes to preparing the event on Create10. My websites are: www.reverbnation.com/shimzie and www.isound.com/shimzie . I believe the 5 Boroughs event will make a big impact on people from, not only Greenwich, but everywhere.
