The contest challenges entrants to imagine the future of video and capture it in a 20-second film.
Could we visit a doctor via video? How will video change education? Could holograms let us be in two places at once? What new experiences will Virtual Reality bring, and how will Augmented Reality change the way we experience the world around us?
Your video should illustrate a future scenario that imagines one of the many ways that video could impact our lives in the near or distant future.
The winner will be awarded a cash prize of 1,500 Swiss francs, and the contest’s three runners-up will each receive a prize of 500 Swiss francs. The winning videos will be decided by a public vote.
The deadline for submissions to the contest has been extended from 20 August to 10 September 2019. Contestants are welcome to submit up to three entries.
The contest’s Facebook page will provide interactive guidance to potential entrants throughout the course of the contest.
The contest’s Twitter account will announce key dates and point followers to relevant supporting information.
The #futurevideo contest is part of the build-up to World Standards Day, 14 October, which this year takes the theme: “Video standards create a global stage”.
