How would you showcase sustainability?

The Picture This Festival for the Planet short video competition aims to raise awareness of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Sony’s Picture This competition is a great, creative initiative, which concentrates on 8 of the 17 SDGs – including number 7: affordable clean energy for all.

Entrants can submit videos, up to eight minutes long – taken on any device. And they can be produced in a variety of styles and formats, including documentary, animation, and VR.

“Fiction or non-fiction welcome. Comedy, drama, live action or documentary. Dreams of solutions, stories of hope, tales of individual heroes, humorous conversations, spoken word, sci-fi visions, and general stories of a better world. New or existing films accepted,” the competition website states.

The eight regional winners will be flown to Los Angeles this summer – where their videos will be screened.

It’s free to enter – and submissions need to be made by 30 April.
