We have updated the judging criteria for 2022! The criteria looks at:

1. Relevance to the theme. How well does the film incorporate the theme the Science of Recycling.
2. Creativity. How well does the film draw in the viewer and keep their attention?
3. Technical Skills. What is the overall quality of production?
4. Story Telling. How engaging is the story and does it provide dramatic appeal and closure?
5. Environmental understanding. Does the film explain the environmental impact of mobile technology and the benefits of recycling?

You can download a copy of the assessment matrix so you can create your film to meet the criteria. MobileMuster will review the submission and a panel of film, environmental and  education experts will select the finalist and winners.
