Submission deadline: 21 June 2020
We’re calling all aspiring filmmakers to create an original short film reflecting the theme ‘Uniquely New Zealand’, and be in line to win some amazing prizes!
After the success of our ‘Audio for Video’ webinar, we have once again teamed up with Sennheiser to give local filmmakers the chance to win great audio gear for your next film project.
As the current situation restricts us from overseas travel, we want to focus the lens on New Zealand. We’ve emerged from a strange time of staying at home in our bubbles, but now that we can explore again, we’re giving you an opportunity to get out and showcase what our country has to offer.
You can shoot any genre/format you want (documentary, drama, comedy, TV commercial, vlog, animation…) just be sure to capture the spirit of Aotearoa!
It’s easy, all you have to do is head over to the official blog post, fill in your details in the form and submit the external link to your video clip.
