MO Project is a contest about a movement. Californians are making neighborhoods healthier and we want to hear from you. Join in! Think about what’s working, what’s not working, and how to make it better. Your short films will be shown to state and local representatives to help shape future funding and laws. Make a short film and enter today!
Make a 30 seconds or 60 seconds (exact length) PSA or a 3 mintues or less Short Story. All submissions must be original work completed by youth ages 13-18.
Videos will be pre-screened by Contest Organizers and then posted online for public voting. Public voting runs from the moment the video is made available online for public viewing to 11:59 p.m. PT on May 15, 2009.*
