Eligibility Criteria
- This contest is open to anyone who has created work focusing on the future. They are less concerned with the medium of the work submitted and more interested in its impact. They believe a piece of art, theatre, poetry, sculpture, game, and all types of mediums can all sit side-by-side in making positive change.
Ineligibility Criteria
- If you have previously won a Zealous-ran opportunity, such as the previous Zealous Amplify, you are not eligible to apply.
Judging Criteria
- Judges will be scoring work on their impact, originality, and story.
Application Requirements
- Each submission you make needs to represent one project or work.
- This could be a short film, performance, artwork, script, design, game, etc. Please note that this is not an exhaustive list and is just here to provide ideas of what your submissions could look like.
- To give them a good representation of the work, they allow each submission to contain 5 items (a mix of images, videos, music, text). The first item should be the piece you want to be considered, all other items are optional and should be made up of supporting elements (e.g. stills, close-ups, synopsis, etc.).
- Uploaded film footage should be less than 5 minutes long (if this is for a longer project, a trailer will do).
- All written works should be less than 1,000 words.
