Pepsi Short Film Video Competition 2010

The Pepsi "60 seconds to Refresh Your World" Movie Competition

Pepsi and MOFILM want to encourage and nurture the art of the short film. Go out with your camcorder (or phone) and put together a video up to 60 seconds in length. This isn't an ad competition but a serious film competition which will culminate at the Barcelona GSMA World Congress in February 2010!

It's not the quality of the production that counts but the story and how you put it across!

To get started download the competition brief (English or Español) and then get out there with your camera.

Deadline for submissions is: Feb 1 2010.

Categories

Create a 60 second movie to ‘refresh your world’ with one of the following 5 themes:

• If Youth Ran The World
• All You Can Do With 1 Dollar, Pound or Euro
• Paint Your World*
• Tomorrow
• Here's To The Crazy Ones

*is really about style over substance - this is about eye candies, technique and artistic expression. Inventing a new style.

Every film must be exactly 60 seconds long with no brands or product placement (not even Pepsi) - it's NOT an advertising contest!
