iTunes Gift Card Auction
THE EXPERIMENT
MTV gave 100 Flip camcorders to 100 college students around the country and told them to get inspired and surprise us. Different themes guided them, some were open-ended, others were scavenger hunts and others were questions only they could answer. See for yourself, all their footage can be found here: WHATtheFLIP.mtv.com
EPISODES
Centered on one specific theme, each episode of What the Flip takes footage from college students from around the country and mashes it up into a 1 minute online MTV show that can be viewed here.
And each What the Flip episode is brought to life through the power of music by some great emerging indie artists that can be checked out here.   |
