On June 10, the California Academy of Sciences hosted the first annual KQED Science Youth Media Festival. Young filmmakers with their friends and family came from all over the area to participate in a great showcase of over 20 videos about environmental issues. The videos ranged in a variety of environmental issues like air quality, greenhouse gases, water quality, ocean acidification, conservation, food justice, and sustainability. All selected videos were granted iTunes gift cards.
The festival showcased the videos under 5 categories: Water, Air, Food, Sustainability, and Conservation.
The jurors awarded three winning videos in both the high school and middle school age groups. The winners won Apple mobile devices. Below are the winners.
