Have you ever been the target of cyber-bullying or do you know people who have? Have you ever cyber-bullied anyone???


With ambassadors like Ruby Rose, BackMeup the anti-cyberbullying campaign that so many students relate to and are supporting.


As part of the campaign about 100 students entered a competition to make a video to stop cyberbullying, below are links to the winner and the ten winners of the BackMeUp anti-cyberbullying competition have created a 30 second commercial at their film making workshop in Sydney.


The week long workshop at NIDA (National Institute of Dramatic Art) was the grand prize for the competition that attracted more than100 entries.


Two of the winners – Paige and Eloise from South Australia – said that everybody was “excited and pumped” during the NIDA week, even though it was challenging acting in front of the camera rather than standing behind it.


“It is surreal the way we have got along with each other during this amazing journey no-matter what our experience of film and acting is or where we are from or how old we are we are all entirely supportive of everyone’s decisions, ideas and inputs.”



Check out more of the winning video entries and maybe even share it at your school...
