MTV Shuga and MTV Breaks are opening up the industry again! We're bringing back the official #MTVShugaComicBook and we are looking for South Africa's most talented illustrators and graphic designers to work on it! Do you think this could be you?

We did it in 2017 and we’re doing it again in 2019! The MTV Shuga: Down South Comic Book is coming back and it will be hitting shelves around the country before Spring 2019 and we can’t wait for the entire Shugafam to read it. But first… we have to design it — and that’s where we need YOUR help!

OPEN UP THE INDUSTRY:

If you didn’t already know, we at MTV Shuga pride ourselves on offering opportunities to young talent. After opening up the industry to actors and directors this year, we are looking to put some young illustrators on the map with a once in a lifetime opportunity. We’re assembling a team of six young artists who will design our MTV Shuga: Down South Comic Book!

MTV Shuga tells the very real stories of young people across Africa; therefore it makes sense that the stories be told by the voices and talents of young people. The MTV Shuga Comic Book will be designed, scripted and illustrated by young people from cover to cover. Every frame, every blurb and every character will be designed by your hands #Shugafam. How exciting does that sound?

The competition runs from the 10th of April 2019 to the 30th of April 2019 and is only valid to entrants from South Africa who are aged between 18-26.

A few months ago, I stumbled upon a post about a cryptocurrency investment platform that I thought was a good idea at that time to invest in crypto, I didn’t realize I was being catfished by the cryptocurrency investment manager who promised me huge returns on my investment. I lost my capital of $470,000 and interest without receiving any profits in return. I was depressed and had no idea how to move forward. I told my colleague at work about it and I was referred to Hacker Judas Service, a cryptocurrency recovery company. I provided all the information about the scam to them, and Judas was able to recover my funds within 72 hours. I’m truly grateful for their help and I want to recommend their service to everyone affected by these cryptocurrency scams. You can reach Judas via E-Mail: hackerjudas9@gmail.com
