Nickelodeon (DStv Channel 305), one of the world’s leading recognized entertainment brands for kids and families, has announced the first-ever global SpongeBob SquarePants-inspired short film competition, SpongeBob SquareShorts: Original Fan Tributes. SpongeBob fans and filmmakers of all ages in Nigeria and other parts of the world will create original, SpongeBob-inspired short films for a chance to win a cash prize and trip for four people to a screening event in Hollywood, California. The call for entries will run until Friday 28 June. Entries can be submitted in two categories (under 18 years of age, and 18 and over) to www.SpongeBobSquareShorts.com.
“SpongeBob is a global icon and beloved by
people of all ages,” said Pam Kaufman, Chief Marketing Officer, Nickelodeon
Group. “We’re excited to launch a
competition that lets fans around the world create compelling short films that showcase
the positivity and optimism that SpongeBob brings to audiences everywhere.”
Films submitted to the SpongeBob SquareShorts: Original
Fan Tributes competition should be themed around SpongeBob, his world
and/or his friends, while celebrating his endearing attributes: humour,
overflowing happiness and persistent positivity. The short films can be
live-action, animation, stop-motion, etc. and should run no longer than three
(3) minutes. Videos will be judged on originality
& creativity, incorporation of SpongeBob’s attributes, and overall appeal.
Following the entry period, a panel of
judges will select finalists and the top 10 in each of the two categories will
be announced on Thursday 18 July as finalists. From 18 July until 2 August,
