Good afternoon,
 
Companhia de Ideias is a Portuguese television production company and we are currently producing a new tv programme called EuroTwit.

EuroTwitt is a weekly show (25 minutes long) for young people, where they can learn about all the European current affairs / interesting events. Inspired by the popular social network Twitter, the show features short-news reports, short interviews and humour sketches; and will begin broadcasting in March 2010. The goal is to provide and divulge information in a short entertaining programme.

As the show is aimed at young European people with an interest in the EU and related topics, we are including a spot in the show for tv news reports by journalism students from all over Europe.
We therefore invite all journalism/audiovisual students to send us their news reports to be aired on the show. These should be about any topic of interest to the EU in general – the idea is to provide feedback from different countries and events all over Europe.
 
Those interested in participating and having there news reports broadcast on Portuguese national television (RTP2) and on the internet (You Tube / Vimeo) are welcome to send their material (preferably edited) via internet (e.g. you send it / send stuff) or by mail (dvd) according to these descriptions and to the following addresses:
