Hyperlocal is an interactive story map
where Canadians can upload personal stories about the changes they see in their
own neighbourhoods. Stories may touch the big issues we
face in a fragile economy, or reflect small changes in a neighbourhood (such as
when a colourful character passes away, or a coffee chain moves in).
We want to know what's new and changing in your neighbourhood and what that change means to you.
We want to know what's new and changing in your neighbourhood and what that change means to you.
There
are different ways to submit:
- Text entry between 400-500 words (photo optional)
- Photo essay and caption (3 photos + 50-100 word caption)
- Video or audio (maximum length: 2 minutes) with a 50-100 word accompanying text
All
stories will be available to be read online, and at the end of the month a jury
will select the most compelling submission from the public. The winning
story will be turned into a web-based interactive by the National Film
Board of Canada’s Digital Studio, and the winner will receive a laptop
computer.
There
is no cost to enter. Deadline is May
3, 2013.
Thank you,
