GFDD and FUNGLODE launch the Globo Verde Dominicano Award
Among their initiatives for the promotion of a culture of cinematography for the benefit of the environment, GFDD and FUNGLODE present the first installment of their contest for short films and public service announcement, Globo Verde Dominicano Award.
Globo Verde Dominicano Award is launched within the framework of the II Dominican Republic Environmental Film Festival, which will take place in September 6 thru 9 of the present year. With this contest, GFDD and FUNGLODE seek to raise awareness on the preservation of the environment and sustainable development. More specifically, it comes as an opportunity for young producers, students and professionals to dive into a fairly unexplored area in the Dominican Republic: the production of audiovisual material of an environmental nature.
The contest is divided in two categories: short films – the length of which must not exceed 15 minutes, and public service announcement, which must be limited to 40 seconds. Participants must be Dominican nationals, regardless of whether or not they reside in the country. The only requirement is that the work focuses on the topic of the environment and sustainable development.
The electronic registration form can be found on the contest’s webpage and the deadline for registration is July 9th of the present year.
The winners will remain anonymous under a pseudonym, until award day. The short film first place winner will have a trip to California, where he or she will have the opportunity to present their work in the Blue Ocean Film Festival and participate in all the Festival’s conferences and workshops. Second and Third places: Winners will receive honorable mention citations and a free training program in their field of interest at FUNGLODE. The public service announcement first place winner will receive an iMac. Second and Third places: Winners will receive honorable mention citations and a free training program in their field of interest at FUNGLODE.
