Aspiring filmmakers, this is your chance to go on assignment to capture Colombia!
This South American stunner’s doors are now open, and we believe that it has more than a few stories to tell. In our 2015 Travel Film Scholarship, we’re looking for one adventurous documentary filmmaker to capture the culture and the communities of Colombia’s Pacific Coast.
Boasting more than its fair share of white-sand beaches, lush jungles and cloud forested mountain ranges, Colombia is a filmmaker’s dream. However, it’s beauty is matched by history, culture and people no less interesting or colourful.
Your job will be to document the story of a Pacific community nestled in one of the world’s biodiversity hotspots. This undiscovered paradise is just opening itself up to travellers and is chock full of some of the country’s best wildlife and adventure experiences. This is your opportunity to document how the community lives and how they are working to promote tourism to the region.
The Prizes
- A 10-day all-expenses-paid trip in Colombia
- Round-trip airfare from your country of residence to Bogotá, Colombia
- Professional mentorship from filmmaker Brian Rapsey
- Travel insurance for the duration of the trip from World Nomads
Free to apply. Deadline for submissions: September 7, 2015 at 11PM (EST)
