USPA NEWS -
The filmmarathon is sort of an athletic challenge. A race against time, as the participants only have one day, 24-hour hours, to make their film.
Our goal is to bring awareness to the changes we all have to do on a daily basis in our consuming habits. The competition aims to do that with the power of filmmaking. A crew can have only one or more members. Participants have to create a maximum one minute long short film to raise awareness on what we can do to save our envorinment, like being a bit more energy efficient or taking a bit more care in our daily life. The online competition is open to anyone from anywhere.
There is no entry fee, no age limit. There are no technical restrictions. The films can be made with a digital camera, mobile phone or any other applicable camera. During post-production any appropriate programs can be used. There is no preferred genre for the films. It could be a live action short film, video clip or animation.
All the participants get the same time for making the film during the 24-hour marathon, considering the differences in the time-zone. Registrations can be made up until the start of the competition at the official site of the program.
