Film / Television Production

We want you to produce a film (documentary or short film) that follows the theme “coming of age” and/or growing up. The objective is to tell a story that is creative and authentic – utilising the tools at your disposal to communicate an experience that comes with growth and the transition into adulthood. This can be a unique experience (ie telling the story of a gap year abroad) or common (ie graduating from high-school). Selected films will be screened in front of a live audience in Canberra, Australia.

Meets a total run time (excluding credits) of at least 3 minutes. As with the previous point, films that are made shorter than this as a stylistic choice will be considered.

Films that are overly graphic, sexual or mature may be rejected.
