Do you think you could write a song or rap in a foreign language? Do you have the IT skills to make a video to accompany your song? If so… this competition is for you.

The Routes into Languages South West is inviting you to submit a short video, animated if you prefer, to accompany a song or rap, which you have composed in a foreign language. It has to be an original song or can be loosely based on an existing tune. The competition is open to students between the ages of 11-18 in full time education in all regions across the UK.  

We will videostream your video on the Routes into Languages South West YouTube channel. And there is a special prize – ‘The Online Viewers' Award’ (decided by the general public) - which will be awarded to the winning entry in each region as well as to the overall national winner! You will have a chance to vote for your favourite video after the closing date. The details about it will be posted on our YouTube website before the closing date.

Winning entries will receive a prize of £100 and a trophy. All participants will be given certificates of commendation. 

To view the entries from previous years please visit our YouTube RiLSouthWest channel.
