Africa Geographic Best Video Clip 2019 Competition

The Africa Geographic BEST VIDEO CLIP 2019 competition, brought to you by Airlink, runs from June to November 2019, and winners will be announced in December 2019.

SEE 2019 ENTRIES HERE

ENTRIES HAVE NOW CLOSED. THE WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED END OF DECEMBER 2019.

TITLES AND PRIZES

Entries will compete for the coveted title of Africa Geographic’s Best Video Clip of 2019, and a prize of US$500.

VIDEO CLIP CONTENTS

Entries must reflect our focus on the Celebration of Africa – when she shows off and gets under your skin. Perhaps it was a game drive or walking safari encounter, or a magic moment with someone in rural Africa, or your quiet contemplation as you gazed over that amazing panoramic view.

Focus on seconds of magic, rather than minutes of mediocrity. Videos not meeting our length and submission technical requirements will not be considered (see below for more details). Our selection process is final and not subject to negotiation.

For inspiration see our 2018 winner
