Project V
Project V is a vocal competition organized by Nanyang Technological University Students’ Union International Undergraduate Committee of Vietnam (NTUSU IUC Vietnam). It has gone far beyond a normal music show with the purpose of celebrating the occasion of the Lunar New Year. The event is preferably described as a race to fame where talents, creativity and team spirit as well as entrepreneurship are essential elements for success.
Mimicking the template of a professional and artistic idol competition, Project V starts with an audition in October and concluded with a finale in January, just before the Lunar New Year. Participants (mostly Vietnamese) either solos or bands from local tertiary institutions, i.e. NTU, NUS, SMU, SIM to NUS High School and Temasek Polytechnics are attracted to the Audition V, where their performances are recorded and brought into the voting system. After weeks of nail biting, heart stopping, and nerve shaking, the most potential contestants are chosen for the next round. During the following two months, people witness an amazing race of contestants in two mini contests: Photo Series and Debut Single. However, the singers now are joined by their fellows to form a team with exciting roles: manager, photographer, producer, stylist, director, marketing director and all forms of supports.
The Finale is another intersection of minds and combination of efforts with a common theme: “music”. Whether you are singing your heart out on stage, making your votes to decide the winners, having fun interacting with others or simply listening from a far a song that makes you smile, let you all immerse yourselves in great performances and friendship at the Finale on January 17th, 2009.
See you there!
