Pangea Day: unite the world with Your Story




If you had the world's attention for just a few minutes, what story would you tell? On May 10, the opportunity is yours.

At a TED Conference in 2006, visionary documentary film producer, Jehane Noujaim, shared a wish: to change the world, bring people together, and foster a global acceptance of diversity through the power of film. From this wish, the idea for Pangea Day began to take form.

This February, all of us worldwide have an opportunity to participate. How? By creating our own film that will make people laugh, take a moment to reflect, and think. The film can be fiction, non-fiction, real-life, or animation. Above all, the founders of Pangea Day request that your film tell a story that someone else on the other side of the world will be able to relate to.

Pangea Day organizers will be offering a $3000 licensing fee to every featured Pangea Day filmmaker. Visit www.pangeaday.org and submit your film today. The deadline for submitting your film is February 15th.
The world will be watching…
