HONORING YOUNG TEXAS FILMMAKERS PROMOTING POSITIVE SOCIAL CHANGE

ABOUT THE NOBELITY SOCIAL IMPACT AWARD

The Nobelity Social Impact Award celebrates student films that inform their audiences about issues that affect their communities, and inspire social change.

 

All student films submitted to the UIL competition are eligible for this chance to win film equipment for your classroom.

We are proud to support these important young voices. Thanks to all of the students who participate, keep up the great work!

 

Thanks to Precision Camera, Louisiana Charities Trust, Eloise DeJoria, and JP's Peace, Love & Happiness Foundation for funding these awards.
