The E Stings competition is a competition to create a 10 second long sting, for the channel E4. They have to be energetic and fun, aimed at an audience of teenagers, but it also has to be able to be shown on daytime television. This means they are often using common themes in teenage culture, like cityscapes, music and postmodernism.

Our next module in College is to pitch an idea for an entry to this competition to the rest of the class. My first idea is to use stopmotion to animate a shoe moving, then add on huge sparkly eyes. The second is to have some huge, arcane summoning ritual, which ends with E4's logo floating with rocks flying around it. My third idea is a modern dragonslayer, with earbuds and an E4 shirt underneath their armour.
