           We will make an animated film with the direct participation and involvement of the audience, making everything together with you, from the characters and music to the script. It will be a short film with 4 main characters: a girl, a boy, a dog and another pet about which we have no initial clues except that it will not be a dog, and the subject will reflect the theme of the Festival, namely majority-ethnic minority relationship. Our film, unique in its production, will be presented for the first time at the ABIFF Festival, but will also participate in other Festivals.

           For this we have a series of 4 drawing contests, which together with the 2 music contests and the online game, which will complete the script, will draw us an animated short film.

          This 2nd music contest and the 6th selection contest organized by us within the ABIFF Project, comes to ask you exactly the song that will be the basis of the main piece of our film.

          At this last pre-festival competition, we challenge you to compose and perform a song for children, and you will submit it to the analysis of a specialized jury. The composer and the performer can be different people.

         The winning song will be the basis for creating the main musical theme that will be used in making a short animated film.

         The decision on the winner is final. No appeals are accepted.

         The format in which the performed composition will be sent is mp3.
