Geologi Winners 2012
The winners of the GeoLogi2012 short film competition were announced on 17 October during an awards presentation at Geoscience Australia to celebrate Earth Science Week.
Geoscience Australia’s CEO, Dr Chris Pigram presented the GeoLogi Awards to the winning entries.
The GeoLogi short film competition is co-hosted annually by Geoscience Australia and the Australian Science Teachers Association. Students from all states and territories were invited to participate in the national competition.
Entries were received from around the country, including New South Wales, South Australia and the ACT. The short films explored the students' view of the world around them and included films on earthquakes and tsunami, landforms, fossils, volcanoes, geysers and Douglas Mawson.
The films were judged on their science content, creativity and promotion of the theme 'Discovering Geoscience', highlighting how Earth sciences affects our everyday lives. Winners were named in two categories: Primary and Junior Secondary.
