Young filmmakers from around the globe were honored at the United Nations Headquarters in New York during the 2018 PSGFF Awards Ceremony. The films all shared the theme of stopping violence around the world.

I was honored to be one of the jurors and watched 76 films entered into the festival from 6 different continents. The creativity and execution of the children’s’ films was both eye-opening and inspiring.

Winning films from each of the 3 age groups were presented with their awards and also received prizes including complimentary 1-year licenses to the full Adobe Creative Cloud.

With the right tools, these young filmmakers hope to improve their filmmaking and storytelling skills on future projects using the same software as professional Hollywood fimmakers.

I’ve embedded the winning films below. Enjoy!
