About the I LOVE NEW YORK @ Tribeca Student Film Contest:
In 2016, I LOVE NEW YORK invited student filmmakers from around the state to create original short films inspired by the New York's 11 vacation regions. More than 50 applications came in, which our panel narrowed down to the three winners below. The creators of the three winning films received scholarships and camera equipment, and the first-place winner scored a five-day vacation in New York State.
