Your Challenge

Students work in teams to plan, script, perform in, direct, shoot, edit and produce an ad while working around the clock.

Just like a professional film crew, student teams will spend the day at Ekka shooting footage and then have a 24 hour turnaround to have something "in the can" by close of business the following day.

This year's creative brief includes the added requirement of featuring an electrical safety message - "Get your buzz from the Ekka, not electricity. Look up and live." So get creative and educate your peers at the same time.

Ads can be 15 or 30 seconds in length and must be targeted at the 'twixter' segment.

Team Registrations close on 12 July.

Get your teams together, download your entry form and an information pack and start planning your ad:

Free entry to the Ekka on the day of your filming.

If your ad is chosen it will be seen by thousands of people in the ENERGEX Community Arena during the night time program at the Ekka.
