2017 Student Film Contest Theme

Over the past few decades, our nation has experienced an increase in childhood obesity. As a result, this has led to early onset diabetes and various health-related problems. We need to work together to create a culture that encourages healthy eating and regular exercise. Use this platform to help create awareness for this growing epidemic. We welcome a range of genres, from documentaries to intimate personal interest pieces. The videos can be either informational or emotionally charged. We encourage you to express your ideas and views in the best way you can.

Submission Guidelines:

  • All films must be between 3-5 minutes
  • All films must be made by students in College
  • All films must be submitted by a student at least 18 years of age
  • We encourage groups of any size. Please only submit one entry on behalf of the entire group.
