Student World Awards

Los Angeles, United States


The Student World Awards has one objective : seek and spot the best student movie talents from everywhere, then screen their films and show how much raw talent today gets to compete with professional industry levels.

Our first edition took place on May 5, in the Echo Park Film Center, right on Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles.

The festival turns trimestrial. Each 3-months edition will end with its finalists and winners, which will be notified by the end of the 3 months, and receive their certificate awards.

Then for the annual screening, all the winners for August, November, and February will go to the annual competition ending with the annual screening event in Los Angeles. No additive fee, you have nothing to do : we keep you posted.

EXPERIENCE
*** Experience a worldwide competition, student creations from everywhere !
*** Screening in Los Angeles !
*** Low fees.
*** Nomination process and laurel.
*** Award give away in the City of Angels !
*** World Award Certificate

OUR DIFFERENCE
Most of the festivals have a student category to submit, lots of them have student special fees and waivers. But we think this is not enough.

This is why we created a festival dedicated to the student artists. Because it's a special time in your lives that you need to build on.

The film schools, the education the youngsters have, the society of images we live in today pushed a whole new generation to another level of creativity.

Young directors and student crews today are using different technologies than Peter Jackson or Steven Spielberg when they were kids, and maybe they are making different movies. But what students shoot today, most of the time is pretty astonishing. They break the ceiling of what the « student » expectations are.

To get that, you just need to attend some screenings, and to pay attention to certain festivals that screen a selection of student films or films made by students.

But the Student World Awards is 100% dedicated to students. Clear and simple.

We aim to provide quality entertainment with social awareness, offering a bright and sensitive look at the world of work. 

The works to be competed must tell stories related to the world of work and of the workers and their lives. 

By way of example, below are four important themes and pillars from which to consider the ‘labour’ theme.

PEOPLE
Life stories where the protagonists are the workers themselves. Stories about their lives and their dreams told through intimate stories that show the contribution of each individual to their work or a project related to work and/or their place in the society to which they belong.

EDUCATION
Training contributes to improving quality of work and quality of life. Contents designed to educate that are entertaining and/or innovative formats that highlight education as a fundamental piece of individual progression in society as a whole.

INDUSTRY
The industry is the meeting place between technological and human resources. In this axis the role of entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial activity, scientific and technological advances, participation of the state, the union role and human capital are evidenced. The development of industry as a path to the future of work.

SOCIAL DIMENSION
A fundamental pillar in the construction of a country, is that we understand the social aspect as the basis upon which better societies must be built. Issues such as solidarity, environmental awareness, sustainability and the care of the planet in which we live in, fundamental rights in the workplace, gender equality, inclusion, child labour, forced labour migrant labour, disability and work, and social protection among other issues.

These are all valid themes to apply for the contest.
