Starting this weekend, October 9, prospective local content creator megastars can sign up for this “first-of-its-kind” opportunity, with a unique prize up for the win.

Hosted by game technologies company Logitech G, the Content Creator Academy competition is a face-off between South African stream scene wannabes for a six-month brand contract, and a space for participants to engage with each other and improve their relevant skills at the same time.

“We realise that young members of our gaming community are already creating exciting content. They require some guidance, tools and knowledge to develop their content creation skills,” said Alexander “Lizzard” Olls, Logitech G's marketing manager. “Logitech G’s Content Creator Academy not only combines gamers’ love for gaming and content creation, but it’s also an opportunity for us to engage with our loyal community of gamers and learn from each other along the way.”

For this competition, Logitech G wants an authentic South African perspective from contestants, representative of our diverse gaming culture. Eight finalists will be selected for special ops training with Sam “TechGirlZA” Wright and Super2Bit’s David “Dangerous Dave” Kozlowski, including a combo of technical, writing, and social skills development. Out of these eight finalists, two winners will be decided.
