Show us. A phone camera is fine.

We don’t want a fancy film. We want to see the problem, meet the people, and meet your crew. Two minutes or less.

Filming tips

  • Film in daylight, with the light in front of you, not behind.
  • Find a quiet spot when you talk. Hold the phone steady, or lean it on something.
  • Show, don’t tell: film the drain overflowing, the queue, the wasted vegetables.
  • Speak in Hindi, English or both. Be yourself.
  • Ask before filming anyone, and only film people who agree.

Uploading it

  1. Upload to YouTube as “Unlisted” (only people with the link can see it). Use a parent’s account if you’re under 13.
  2. Or upload to Google Drive and set sharing to “Anyone with the link”.
  3. Or post on Instagram from a parent’s account.
  4. Open the link in a private window to check it works, then paste it in your application.

For your application, you’ll need:

  • A video of 2 minutes or less
  • Uploaded as Unlisted on YouTube, or a Google Drive / Instagram link
  • Every crew member appears, and you talk to a real person
