'The Making of Body Gossip' TV trailer:
We're launching a National Writing Competition in the UK. We want to hear your stories. We want you to shout your opinions, vent your arguments, share your struggles with your BODY. Stories that will inspire, encourage and reassure. Stories that will call for positive beauty icons and a more realistic portrayal of beauty in the media. Stories that could change your world. Your stories will be judged by a creative panel of celebrity writers and directors, and members of Beat, who are working to beat eating disorders (www.b-eat.co.uk). Approximately 12 stories will be chosen as the winning pieces, which will then form the script of Body Gossip. Now the really exciting news! Spring 2008: The winning submissions will be performed by a cast of A-LIST CELEBRITIES at a West End theatre in London, UK. This exciting event will raise money and awareness for Beat, and will be a huge celebration of real beauty and real stories. If your story is chosen to be performed, you will receive full writing credits. You and a friend will receive VIP tickets to the West End show, including return travel to and from London and 5 star accommodation. Once at the event, you'll be treated like a star - you'll meet the celebrity performing your story and will take a bow with them onstage in recognition of your contribution to the evening. Your VIP pass will grant you entrance to the glitzy after-show party, where you'll mingle with the stars. Full terms and conditions of the Writing Competition can be found at our website: www.bodygossip.org
