Ana-Maria Gutierrez:	Hi Gracy. Thanks for your question.  Videos do not need to be animated or hand-drawn. Lots of students create entries using live-action footage, motion photography, or documentary-style storytelling.

Stephanie Wolfe:	Learn more about David and Danny's winning video here: https://www.worldof8billion.org/video-winner/rain-runoff-and-8-billion-how-population-growth-pollutes-our-water/
David H:	All the videos seem stuck in the endless economic and population growth.  With the solution being technology innovation.  Perhaps unrealistic that any of the videos would deviate from technosalvation ideology that allows endless growth.  Thoughts?
KONRAD K:	Any thoughts, plans, or discussion in having future contests include the intersection of religion and reproductive habits?
Patty M:	The stormwater video had amazing video techniques!
William I:	A very great session. I am so much thankful for the work Population Connection around the world.

KONRAD K:	This looks like a great program and I am glad to be made aware of it.  Shaping minds while they are young is critical...as the religious indoctrination institutions are well aware of.  The worldview of "we don't need to do anything because god will take care of it
KONRAD K:	'is a formidable camp to deal with.
Patty M:	Yes Konrad.
Stephanie Wolfe:	Thank you Barbara and Carol for an incredible presentation!
Patty M:	Thank you - this was SO refreshing!
