 One Ocean Student Film Festival 2014
The NOAA Youth Working Group is once again hosting the One Ocean Student Film Festival. This year's event will be held in Wanchese, NC at UNC Coastal Studies Institute on April 26, 2014 in conjunction with an Earth Day Festival. The submission deadline is March 15, 2014. And of course, there are prizes!
The purpose of the second annual One Ocean Film Festival competition is to inspire, encourage, recognize and promote the work of student filmmakers who are passionate about the ocean and its maritime heritage. The themes of this year's competition aim to highlight and showcase our nation's rich maritime resources, heritage, and traditions.
- Indigenous maritime cultures-long before Western ships touched American shores, many indigenous cultures were plying the waters in search of food, new homes and exploration. - Shipwrecks as reefs-thousands of shipwrecks offer habitat to a wide variety of sea life. - War along US coasts-Evidence of the Civil War, WWI, and WWII can still be seen along the US coast. - Seafaring traditions, folklore and stories-Humans have sailed the seas for thousands of years creating traditions, tall tales, stories of new lands, and more. - Land-based maritime heritage-lighthouses, ports, life-saving stations: these are all examples f our larger maritime cultural landscape and land-based connections to the marine environment.
