Synopsis
Talented youngsters film themselves performing songs from the Disney original movie Camp Rock. The best eight go forward to a song-and-dance workshop, similar to the one featured in the Disney original movie Camp Rock. Professional vocal coaches and choreographers help them to hone their talent, and they're taken on trips to build their confidence - one series featured busking in Covent Garden, another had a mock press interview.
Each of the contestants performs for the judges at a "Camp jam", and the best four return for the "Final jam", broadcast live. The prize for the winner was to record a professional music video of their favourite song from the Disney original movie Camp Rock.
Champions
2009: Holly-Anne Hull
2010: Shannon Saunders
Trivia
Versions of the show were also made for Disney channels in Spain, the Benelux countries, and Scandinavia.
Two of the series 1 finalists would later turn up on The Voice UK; Jessica Hammond in 2012, where she was outsung in the battle rounds by Vince Kidd, and Holly-Anne Hull, who would reach the knockouts of that programme in 2019 as a third of Remember Monday. (The latter band are set to represent the BBC at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2025.)
