Childnet Film Competition – be inspired!

16 May 2016

With 1 month to go until the Childnet Film Competition 2016 closes for entries we share some of the amazing films from last year to help inspire you this year!

Creating a film competition winning entry is all about making a film that is creative, close to the theme and has a clear message.

Last year primary schools were invited to create a film using the theme ‘A good online friend is someone who…’ and secondary schools were invited to create a film using the theme ‘A Better Internet is Up to Us!’.

The standard was extremely high and we had animations, superheroes and some young people even composed their own songs!

For tips on how to create a brilliant entry visit our Top Tips for Filmmaking. In the mean times here are the winning entries from our primary cateory and the secondary category within the Childnet Film Competition 2015.

Primary category winner 2015: Ludworth Primary School ‘Chips and Bangs’

Secondary category winner 2015: Weavers Academy ‘We have a choice to make a better internet’
