What does justice mean to you? After a historic year of change, 2021 is destined to be a year of transformation. And you can help!
Young Americans have been empowered to seek justice on a personal and community level. Odyssey Impact® is an international award-winning film and social impact company that has spent the last 30 years using the power of media to challenge injustices and inspire social change. Now, we ask you to join us in our goal to educate, engage, and activate the public on social inequities in our inaugural #MyJustice Film Contest.
- Do you believe in the power of media to inspire social change?
- Are you 18 to 30 years old?
- Do you have a smartphone?
- Is there a problem that you or your community is facing that needs to be addressed?
- Do you know how to address these needs?
If so, Odyssey Impact® invites you to show us the difference you are making by creating a video short that highlights an issue impacting you or your community that deserves greater public attention. All videos should be between 2 to 3-minutes long, filmed and edited on a smartphone, and offer a call to action that could make a difference in your life or those in your community.
WINNERS WILL RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING:
- Winners will have their films showcased in the Justice Film Festival in New York City this November, with the top scoring winner receiving a cash prize of $2,000 and the next nine high scoring winners receiving $1,000.
- The top ten winners will have their films premiere at the Justice Film Festival NYC this November.
- Additionally, the top five winners will receive a 1-year long mentorship with a film industry leader (to be determined by Odyssey Impact®).
