Ever wonder how people understand and make sense of climate change? Ever wanted to convince people that the issue is important? Co-sponsored by: Erb Institute and Screen Arts & Cultures. This contest is open to U-M students and has a prize pool of $7,500.
Now is your chance!
The Erb Institute, in collaboration with the department of Screen Arts & Cultures, is hosting a competition to create the best student-produced video aimed at engaging the public in climate change. With a prize pool of $7,500, and four prizes to be won, this is your opportunity to show off your skills and make a difference.
We’re looking for public service announcement (PSA) videos, 30 to 90 seconds in length, that will capture the attention of diverse audiences and inspire positive action on climate change. We’re especially looking for PSAs that will increase social engagement, raise awareness about climate change solutions, encourage individual action, and/or provide people with an inspiring vision of what a sustainable future could look like. Winning PSAs may also be submitted for consideration of a Student Production Award by the Michigan Chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (the organization that awards Emmys).
The contest is open to students from:
- The Erb Institute
- School of Natural Resources & Environment
- Ross School of Business
- Screen Arts and Cultures or students who have taken production courses in SAC
- Program in the Environment
- Other students who have taken environment-related courses
Actors and participants in the video may include individuals from outside the UM community and other departments.
Free pizza (but register first!!!)
