Visions of A.I.

As this competition is for ages 11-14, all films must be entered by a parent/guardian, teacher or other adult on behalf of a young person or group of young people. To enter, please complete the entry form. You will then be instructed to upload your film and you will receive confirmation on the upload page that this has been successful.

We are looking for the most creative and engaging short films, with strong stories. In order to be shortlisted for the judges' consideration, entrants must meet the following criteria:

• Films may be live action or animated.
• Films may be made using any equipment, be it a mobile phone, tablet, camera, or anything else.
• You must be between 11 and 14 years of age at the time of submitting your film (if your film has been made by a group of young people, the average age of all members must be 11 to 14).
• Your film should be no longer than 2 minutes in duration, including titles and credits
• Any music, video or still images used in the film should be cleared for use by the copyright holder or be copyright free.
• You must NOT feature the surnames of any young people under the age of 18, anywhere in the film, including the titles and credits. Into Film are committed to the protection and safety of young people, and the addition of surnames in your films can compromise this. If surnames are included in your film, your entry may not be considered.
  
• You must have gained permission to film anyone who appears in the film. Anyone aged under 16 who appears in the film must have their parent or carer's permission to appear.

We will not be judging technical ability alone. Judges will use the following criteria to make their decisions on the winning film:

• Idea - the film idea is original and creative and has been delivered well
• Story - the story is strong and engaging and captures the audience's attention
• Sound - the music, sound effects and dialogue are clear and strengthen the narrative
• Look - the use of camera angles, movement, lighting and framing support the narrative
