Video Campaign
Video Campaigns raise awareness of an issue and inspire positive action.
Tell a quick story through a skit, or short speech to send a clear message to viewers, almost like an advertisement for the environment. You do not have to appear in your video, but could create it with stop motion animation, puppets, or scenery with a voiceover or text.
Criteria
- A clear Call to Action to help keep Scotland beautiful.
- Film in portrait for a maximum of one minute (like TikTok or YouTube Short).
- You can choose any language you like, but please include English subtitles.
- Your video should be 70% your own footage.
- List any other footage or quotes in a Source List.
- Tell us three places you have shared your video.
- No AI or copyrighted music please.
