In response to continuing lockdowns Cryptic presents Sonic Bites, a sensory series of audiovisual appetisers. Broadcast at 13.00 GMT (and available for 24 hours) on the second and fourth Thursday of every month, Sonic Bites offers a welcome lunchtime escape.

We are looking for completed screen-based audiovisual works with music and sound at their core. Accepted works can include: motion graphics; generative video, film, digital animation, 3D video and/or 360.

Selected artists will receive a £200 fee plus an online platform for their work supported by an experienced, international arts company.

Artists must be based in the UK and submitted works should be between 5 – 10 minutes long.

Cryptic is an equal opportunities and inclusive organisation. We want to inspire more people to discover, engage with and participate in the arts and we recognise that the diversity of our artistic programme, audiences and workforce is key to our success. We welcome applications from artists who are currently underrepresented or under-supported within the arts sector (including, but not limited to under-represented Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+ identities, gender identities, socioeconomic backgrounds, those with disabilities and/or caring responsibilities).
