TWO short films exploring mental health have taken out the top prizes in Frankston Arts Centre’s LockDown short film competition.
21-year-old James Griffith took out the top prize for his short film
Routine. The film explores the cyclical nature of being in lockdown, and the effect that can have on someone’s mental wellbeing.
Mr Griffith said “I aimed to capture how people were feeling during this remarkable period of time.” He took home a $2000 prize for his work.
Imogen Adeney won the $1000 prize for her film GLITCH.
The 16-year-old said her film “was trying to capture the whole 2020 COVID situation, particularly highlighting the mental health impact.”
