OneWorldTV and MTV's Staying Alive Campaign have teamed up once again to
launch this year's HIV/AIDS PSA competition. This is your opportunity to
create a powerful Public Service Announcement (PSA) on the subject of
HIV/AIDS to a wide audience across various platforms.
We are asking you to get creative with your video equipment to produce a
30-60 second PSA to inform, inspire and motivate particularly young people
on the issue of HIV and AIDS. Public Service Announcements should provide
clear information about the issue whilst simultaneously captivating the
audience and inspiring them to act. You will need to be creative, well
informed and passionate about bringing the issue of HIV/AIDS to the public's
attention in new and engaging ways.
The winning PSA will be showcased on the Staying Alive website and the
OneWorldTV open documentary platform plus there's a very good chance it will
be broadcast on one or more of MTV's television channels. Last year's
winning entry was indeed broadcast on MTV's Asian channels and the UK's
Community Channel, as well as receiving the Staying Alive award. All
eligible video entries received will be showcased on the OneWorldTV open
documentary platform.
For more information about the specific issues we would like your PSA to
address please read the Competition Brief (see OneWorldTV -
http://tv.oneworld.net), where you will find a summary of the key issues and
some suggestions for straplines / messages to be communicated.
Submissions:
The competition is open to anyone aged between 15 - 25 years and can be
created using any preferred language. The aim of this year's competition is
to inform and sensitise young people about the vulnerabilities of women and
girls to HIV/AIDS and to prevent new infections, especially among women and
girls.
