Multimedia production company onedotzero and MTV announced an on-air launch of ten films commissioned as part of their “Bloom” competition, a worldwide search for up-and-coming creative talent working in film, animation and other mediums. Creative people around the world were invited to send in treatments for one-minute-long films that explore community identity in their hometowns.
Organisers received 200 entries from 30 countries and the judging panel selected 10 winning projects and five runners-up based on innovation, style, technical skill and creative interpretation of the Bloom brief. The winning treatments were commissioned in 2007, and the artists were given budgets to create and develop their films reflecting on their community. The final pieces were delivered in January, 2008.
The minute-long films will be given exposure on MTV’s channels globally and online. All ten winners will be available to view online at www.mtvonedotzero.com, and will also be featured in the onedotzero worldwide festival tour.
