The Academy of Film of the Macao University of Science and Technology held the 2019 Golden Spring Award Short Film Competition, which aims at fostering talents in film and television production and encouraging the production of films and videos through new media.  The competition requires contestants to produce videos that portray the unique culture and beauty of Macao and comes in two categories: drama and documentaries.  The awards ceremony this year took place online due to the pandemic.  Six of our students (Ao Lok Hei, Leong Hei Man, Lao Wa Ioi, Lei Ka In, Lam Hio Chon, Tang Keng Hang) clinched the championship in the Student Documentary Category.  Their instructor was Mr. Ng Ka Meng.  Their documentary was also selected for the Present Future Film Festival: Macao x Taiwan x Japan, which is sponsored by the Macao Foundation and aims at promoting local short films and providing a platform for local talents to showcase their productions.  Five of our students (Wong Tan I, Leong Sin Ian, Ngan Chon Wai, Chan U Hin, Chan Si U) came in as the second runners-up in the Student Drama Category in the Short Film Competition.
