FESTIVAL OF FILMS HIGH
SCHOOL COMPETITION
This year we entered the high school market with an invitation to all NSW High School students to enter our
inaugural Festival of Films High School Competition. The competition aims to raise awareness of cyberbullying
and encourage open discussion involving those who are most at risk. The competition’s theme is Cyberbullying:
The effects and how do we solve it? and invites students to create a storyboard of a short film based on the
theme.
Eight finalists will then be chosen to create their film, which will be professionally edited by competition
sponsor Filmpond. We have also partnered with Burn Bright to deliver a leadership workshop to the finalists,
and with the Australian Film Television and Radio School to screen the films and host the Awards Ceremony,
which will be held in August 2016.
Please see our Annual Report in 2016-17 for coverage on this event.
