Uncovered Casting Call
MTV Staying Alive is looking for You!
Sex
Uncovered is a new MTV Staying Alive global series of shorts.
Staying Alive is MTVs international HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention award winning campaign. Staying Alives mission is to educate young people on issues of HIV/AIDS in a bid for them to protect themselves from becoming infected with HIV and therefore stem the spread of HIV. Staying Alive also aims to support an enabling environment for those who are already infected with HIV, free from stigma and discrimination. One of the key ways of educating young people is by engaging them in the issues. Staying Alive seeks to empower young people to open up channels of communication, with their peers, their relationship partners, their family and friends, by dialoguing on issues that relate to their love life, sexuality, sex and indeed HIV/AIDS. Staying Alive is a safe space for self-expression on the issues of sex and relationships that directly impact our audience.
The issues are serious, and the conversations will range from the serious to the light heartened as young people discuss personal experiences, myths, rumours, fact and fictions, the types of conversations young people have everyday. For this series of short spots, Staying Alive is looking for young people to talk about the issues below:
Masculinity
Gifts in exchange for sex
Disability and HIV/AIDS
Living with HIV
Sex and HIV
Using a condom
Not having sex
Multiple partners
Injecting drug use
Women and HIV/AIDS
Dating
Sexuality
Rape and coercion
Violence and HIV/AIDS
Were looking for young people from around the world to participate in this project to talk about regional issues as well as global themes affecting young people.
