Capture Pingtung's beauty: Short video contest offers up to NT$50,000 prize

Taiwan's Dapeng Bay National Scenic Area Administration (DPBNSA) has launched the "Pingtung Tourism Circle Short Video Popularity Award," inviting the public to capture and share the beauty of Pingtung through short videos. The contest, open for submissions until the end of October, offers a top prize of NT$50,000.

The initiative encourages participants to view "travel as creation," producing 30- to 90-second videos within designated areas of the Pingtung tourism circle. The goal is to showcase diverse aspects of Pingtung, from culinary exploration and hidden gems to family outings and romantic getaways, allowing creators to present their personal style and highlight the region's warmth.

Entries must be posted on public Facebook or Instagram accounts with specified tags and hashtags. The judging criteria will focus on social media engagement, including views, likes, comments, and shares. This emphasis on popularity aims to allow compelling content to stand out through public support.

Short videos not only record travel but also offer a chance to win a prize of fifty thousand dollars.

In addition to the NT$50,000 grand prize (Popularity Gold Award), the contest offers a silver award of NT$30,000, a bronze award of NT$20,000, five excellence awards of NT$10,000 each, and 50 tourism creation awards with special gift packages.

The DPBNSA believes that the "everyone is a self-media" nature of short videos can inspire more travelers to share their experiences. By encouraging diverse perspectives, the administration hopes to uncover Pingtung's rich tourism resources and local characteristics, ultimately enhancing the international visibility of Pingtung's tourism brand.
