Destination Francophonie

"Destination Francophonie" is a video competition inviting francophone students to make miniclip video and share it on the Internet. These videos create a journey across French-speaking regions and communities.

Launched by L’Institut Français of Cambodia in Phnom Penh last year, "Destination Francophonie" has received great response and now it welcomes Francophone students from other Asian countries to participate in the edition 2012.

For participation, you do not need to have professional filming equipment or to be a genius in montage videos. Simply use your mobile or digital camera to film and share with us your creative video.
