Vuka! Awards 2002 welcomes professionals back on board
MultiChoice Africa (MCA) has announced that the VUKA! Awards 2002, its fourth such initiative to encourage the making of Public Service Announcements (PSAs) in Southern Africa, is open to both newcomer and professional filmmakers this year.
A PSA is a commercial produced for a registered charity, non-government organisation or a worthy cause. These worthy causes need media exposure in order to generate awareness and raise funds for social, economic or environmental issues.
"The professional film industry in South Africa produces an exceptionally high standard of commercials,¹ notes Linda Vermaas, MCA General Manager: Content. OIt is for this reason, and because of the numerous requests from professional filmmakers, that MultiChoice decided to open the competition to Professionals this year," she explains.
"It also gives professionals the opportunity to see the innovative work of student and newcomers filmmakers. Our vision for the VUKA! Awards is that this will create mentoring opportunities for young filmmakers in the professional business."
For more details and entry forms, please contact Julie Coghlan on (021) 448-6989 or email . The closing date for entries is 30 September 2002.
