The Opportunity

Work inside a real production brief, not a workshop room.

Participants will work around a scheduled song-production brief with assigned teams, approved equipment, Delhi NCR location access and production support from The Black Tape Production.

The song shoot starts once the selected participant's agreement, payment and team pairing are complete. Mentorship and production work happen before the final event on Sunday, 13 December 2026. Participation does not guarantee employment, awards, commercial success or future paid work.
