Calling filmmakers of all ages and abilities. Whether you are an aspiring movie producer, working on your stop-motion skills, or you shoot videos as a hobby, this is the contest for you!
The Travel Safe Student Video contest is open to Calgary students from kindergarten to Grade 12. Win great prizes and a chance to have your work showcased! The deadline is April 30.
The contest is not only a fun and engaging way for students to think about traffic safety, but also part of the Calgary Safer Mobility Plan, a partnership between the City and Calgary Police Service aimed at improving the overall safety of our transportation network.
“We know students have unique perspectives when it comes to traffic safety and we can’t wait to see solutions through their eyes,” said Jacquelyn Oriold, Mobility Education Specialist with the City. “Whether that’s a video from a kindergarten student worried about safety as they walk or wheel to school, or from a middle school student concerned about speeding drivers, or a teenager’s perspective on navigating rush hour, we can’t wait to see their work.”
