Empowering animation, live-action, and music video shorts focus on the impact of kids on contemporary issues. 

A collaborative effort by the students at the Powell River Digital Film School 2021 to animate the environmental song by Lillooet Fox.


Jurorʻs comments: This clever music video, created by a team of students, is filled with stunning images of the ocean and marine life. There are some cutaways to a montage of torn paper images showing environmentally damaging elements. Other cutaways demonstrate damage to coral reefs. The song that is visually illustrated is beautifully produced and delivers a strong message about saving the environment. This would make a great interstitial piece for any film festival, particularly one with an environmental focus.

I applaud the student production team for their creativity and sensibility. I love the final message: stand up, be strong.


I give this film 4.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 16. Reviewed by Julie S., KIDS FIRST!
