Win £5000 for your school!
Be ©reative is a unique and exciting production competition for young people aged 11-19, offering recognition for UK creative talent plus great prizes for individual winners and their schools. This year’s competition brief, provided by a real-life industry body, asks students to create an original ad campaign that encourages young people to respect the UK film and TV industries and make the positive decision to choose official film and TV.
Winning entrants in each of the 11-14 and 15-19 age categories get to take home their very own iPad. In addition, the winners’ school or college receives £5000. Runners-up prizes will also be awarded. By promoting the creativity it takes to make film and TV shows, and the value of them to the UK economy, students can help ensure that great TV and film, and careers in those industries, are available long into the future.
Ask yourself
- Do you love watching great film and TV?
- Does the idea of working behind (or in front of) a camera interest you?
- Want to find out more about how the film and TV industry really works?
- Do you think the creative talent and the hard work which goes into crafting film and TV deserves to be rewarded?
Then get involved!
To find out what you have to do, see the Brief. Use the Resources to help you get started and to develop your competition entry, and see last year’s winners in the Gallery. We’ve even got a great video with a behind-the-scenes expert at Rise of the Planet of the Apes and an example of a pro-copyright trailer from Disney Pixar, to inspire you. Finally, when you’re ready to go, see Entry Details for how to submit plus those all-important Terms and Conditions.
