DigiBC is proud to announce the launch of DigiMusic 2020, a music composition challenge for high school students in British Columbia. The challenge is to create an original piece of music for one of four amazing video game or animated film clips taken from world-famous products that were made right here in BC.
This is an engaging creative opportunity that students, parents and teachers can access directly from the DigiMusic website. All worksheets and instructional guides are available at no cost. Additionally, the materials align with the BC school curriculum since they were developed in collaboration with professional music educators. DigiBC thanks the Province of British Columbia, Creative BC and Amplify BC for supporting this exciting province-wide challenge.
DigiMusic 2020 will run from April 16th to the end of May. The challenge invites young musicians and composers of all varieties to submit a musical score that is based around one of the four clips featured on the DigiMusic website. These have been provided without any audio or music, so the student composer can apply their own vision of enhancing the experience through music. Any genre is welcome, with the strict rule that the music be an exclusive score created specifically by students in grades 8-12 for the DigiMusic 2020 Challenge. Students may work individually or in a group of up to four people.
