We are glad to announce that STUDY KYOTO’s Short Movie Contest for International Students is back again in 2021! This is our 4th one.
For all the current and former international students in Kyoto, it is a great opportunity for you to make a short movie expressing what international students in Kyoto find attractive when it comes to studying in Kyoto.
The video must be less than 3-minute long, and entries must be made before submission.
“Short Movie Contest 2021 for International Students” site is now open and the entry has started!

The theme is “The charms of Kyoto as a study-abroad destination”.
We hope that in the video you share your view with people around the world on the charms of Kyoto as a study-abroad destination.

The style of the movie is completely up to you as long as it makes prospective students want to study in Kyoto.

The winning works will be used as official STUDY KYOTO promotion videos on our website, and at our study abroad fairs overseas.

If you are interested, please see the details on the contest web page.
We are looking forward to your application!
