Remix Film Challenge! | The Crisis Of Civilization

By Films For Action / crisisofcivilization.com

REMIX : To combine or edit existing materials to produce something new.

If you’ve seen it, you’ll probably have guessed that here at The Crisis of Civilization we love Remix films – and we want you to have a go too.

We would like to invite you to create your own Crisis of Civilization-style sequences, using unused interview audio of Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed with images put over the top and music laid underneath. Here is an EXAMPLE from the film.

Pretty simple.

You then upload your creations to YouTube or Vimeo, let us know, and we will post them up here. Then, after a bit, we’ll have a vote via Twitter and Facebook, and the best sequence will get a free DVD (released 1st March) and an A1 Crisis of Civilization poster. But, more importantly, you’ll have a lot of fun creating your sequence – and everyone will think that you’re cool.

Here’s how to do it:

1.Download one or all of these pieces of audio

The Arab Spring

Will Peak Oil Sort Out Climate Change?

Power Structures and Resource Depletion
