AWF, as well as Sun Valley and National Geographic WILD are responsible for selecting the winner of the first WILD to INSPIRE Short Film Competition.
The winner will work with Bob Poole, Emmy award-winning Nat Geo filmmaker.
The films were judged based on:
editing and production quality
connection to the theme
creativity/originality
They were supposed to successfully capture wildlife as it effects those who view it.
The three finalists:
Always Endangered: Jim Laybourne --> this film is dedicated to following a grizzly bear whose status under the Endangered Species Act is about to be revoked. It has adapted to living among humans in Grand Teton National Park.
Bee Happy: David Thompson & Jacob Taylor --> dedicated to Bill Water, a beekeeper that cares for beehives at Guerilla Beekeepers LLC, and explains the importance of beehives in the environment.
Wolf Mountain: Dan Duran, Sam Price-Waldman, Brendan Nahmias --> dedicated to Tonya Littlewolf's spiritual bonding with the 14 wolves she cares for at her California Sanctuary.
The three finalists will attend the Sun Valley Film Festival where their movies will be screened and the winner will be announced.
