The Ripple Effect Film Project is underway and every Georgian with a camera is invited to participate.

The theme for this contest is “Ocean Connections,” and the impact of human behavior on the world’s oceans. Contestants can submit a one to four minute film or a 30 second public service announcement.

“Basically the judges will look at the films and select their favorites. They’re looking at things like whether the film effectively demonstrates a connection to the ocean, production quality, things like that,” said Sara Beresford, an organizer with the project.
