PerformWith.Us is a web site that encourages young people to become involved in the performing arts. It functions much like YouTube or MySpace - users can upload "audition" videos of themselves singing, dancing, acting, and generally being creative. The difference is that it has been designed for people under 18: comments and content are moderated, parental involvement is encouraged, and copyrights are respected.
Eventually we hope to establish both a community for creative young people, and an audition pool for casting agents to find new or local talent.
All profits from the site are donated to charities such as: community theaters; school art, music and drama programs; cultural organizations; and technology that empowers people to be creative. If you would like to be involved, we can always use more content, especially from people who are role models to today's youth. Specifically, we can use:
- Photos
- "Behind the scenes" videos
- Interviews conducted by the PerformWith.Us staff, or short videos that encourage kids to visit the site
- Rights to songs that our users can cover, dance to or lip-synch with in order to audition
- Information feeds so that we can keep our users informed of appearances, tour dates, new projects or products, etc.
