Both competitions encourage young Singaporeans to be superheroes for the planet and use their power to drive positive change for a sustainable future.
“Use Your Power”
Short Film Competition
Are you a creative spark who loves making movies, cares about the environment, and are currently studying at a Tertiary Institution in Singapore?
If your answer is “yes”, this is your golden opportunity to show us how you “Use Your Power”!
Be a superhero for the planet, and make your voice heard by making a film encouraging the people in your community to join the Earth Hour movement to change their lifestyle habits and to create a sustainable future.
Singapore today has the 12th largest environmental footprint in the world, and the films submitted by students (either individual or group entries) should bring to life why committing to one of these four simple actions is a big step towards building a sustainable future:
- Turn up your Air-Con by 1 degree celsius
- Switch to LED light bulbs
- Use fewer plastic bags
- Take shorter showers
Film entries should be no longer than 3 minutes, and must be submitted before 11:59pm on Tuesday 18th March 2014.
All entries will be judged by Marc Webb, director of the upcoming film The Amazing Spider-Man 2. The winning short film will be screened at the Singapore premiere.
