Dear Eco-loggers, Apologies for cross-posting, but we are pleased to announce that Beneath the Waves Film Festival is launching its 2014 call for submissions. We are a unique film festival and communication platform run by scientists with a global reach. Our mission is to provide new venues of communication to give ocean science a voice through digital media and storytelling. Over the past four years, we have reached thousands of people across 6 continents at our events which include viewings of submitted films followed by Q&A sessions with marine scientists . Whether you are an undergad, graduate student, scientist, or a professional filmmaker, if you have a story to tell, we want to hear it, and we want to help you amplify your message!
Films are due by February 1, 2014. All films must be less than 10 minutes in length and must relate to a marine science or conservation topic. Please see www.beneaththewavesfilmfest.org for more details on submission criteria and to view some of our past films and events. Please spread the word about this unique opportunity to broaden the impacts of your work. Contact [email protected] for more details. Thanks! Andrew Shantz PhD Candidate Florida International University Department of Biology
