Winning video clips were created by Mardi Bridges of Casterton, Victoria; Joshua Ballico of Waratah, New South Wales; Ben Schultz of Geelong, Victoria; Natalie Hayter of Rooty Hill, NSW; Dale Smithers of Sydney, NSW; and Matthew Berry and Paulo Nacianceno of Clovelly Park, South Australia. ACS Foundation’s John Ridge said the foundation was “extremely pleased with the quality and variety of video entries,” and he added, “it bodes very well for the future career prospects of IT professionals in Australia.” We were also delighted that we had more than 14,000 views of the web site and the videos.” Ridge said that with a video limit of two minutes duration, the winning clips addressed topics such as global careers, lifestyle, world problems, creativity, relationships and daily life. “The video genres ranged from comedic monologues to animated cartoon clips. Of course, the central theme in all the entries was the potential of Information Technology.” All winners received an Apple iPod touch and were also awarded student membership with the ACS. The winning videos can be viewed at the competition website. |
