Americans cast your vote, not only for president, but also for future mainstream arts and entertainment.
How, you ask? By going to yeahmedia.com to vote for your favorite artist in music, film, TV, photography and video games. Yeah Media is a media and entertainment company providing quality entertainment content. They want to offer the best forms of entertainment by independent artists.
How does work get submitted? By you, the artist. Yeah Media with a panel of 15 content managers comprised of artists with different areas of expertise, look at what America wants and picks the winners. Everyone who has submitted work can receive copies of their winning work in cd and dvd format.
Yeah Media founders brain stormed and started the business venture two years ago. A company spokesman said, "we knew from watching American Idol that a lot of talent was out there and people needed an opportunity to get exposure and to connect with their desired audience." He also said "There is no confirmed date, yet, as to when we will close this segment. We will be sending out letters to all artists when we have the date finalized."
When an artist submits work, they have an opportunity to become a member of Yeah Media. By doing so, the artist can voice their opinion on various works in the entertainment industry. As a member, they can customize their very own web page with their personal interests. For example, having only the music of their choosing come up instead of all the artist's music. Also, with exposure to all of America, the artist gets feedback on their work, as soon as it is placed out there for voting. It can be instantaneous.
There is no cost to submit work, more than one piece of work can be submitted and the artist retains all copyrights to the content. Yeah Media has the seal of approval from the North American Co-operative Media Association. For further information contact info@yeahmedia.com.
