A few months ago, Neil and I created a 2-minute film for the World WildLife Fund (WWF) Video Competition. This competition, launched as part of WWF’s 50th anniversary celebrations, asked filmmakers to produce original short films on the theme of: “Life. Nature. You. Make the Connection”. There were over 260 submissions to the competition, but in the end there could only be 2 winners, one by popular vote and one by jury vote. Surprisingly, WE WON! Check out our award winning film below:

We are thrilled to announce that our film, the Runner, was one of the two Winners! Our film won the Jury prize and Myles Thompson won the popular vote with his film “Life, nature, you.” Check out Myles’ video below.

On top of a $10,000 film commission, another part of the prize was an all-expenses covered trip to New Delhi, India to attend the actual film festival. Neil and I couldn’t make it due to our responsibilities at our Universities, but we did produce a little award-acceptance video that they played at the festival. Check the video below.

We’re really grateful to the WWF for running the competition and can’t wait to work on our next film project with them.
