Participation Tips

? A collection of helpful tips for creating your short film

Your video could become the next “Great Scene of Korea.”

Capture your own Korea—a special place that can become the backdrop of romance, thriller, sci-fi, or action.

? Discover hidden locations

A quiet fishing village untouched by crowds, futuristic city architecture, a foggy walking trail—seek out the “hidden gems” that haven’t yet appeared on screen.

? Look beyond Seoul and explore lesser-known regions across Korea.

? Stories hidden within a place

A tucked-away alley, a rooftop view, or a spot tied to local folklore—a place becomes more compelling when its story is told with it.

? Don’t just show the space—bring it to life.

? Show the unfamiliar within the familiar

Draw out the emotion hidden in everyday places rather than tourist sites.

? Consider filming at dawn, dusk, or using weather elements for added atmosphere.

? Find bold locations that match your genre and mood

A laundromat, an empty classroom, a neon-lit tunnel—unexpected places can make outstanding cinematic backdrops.

? Choose locations that enhance the genre of your story

? Bring out visual beauty

Use composition, lighting, and camera movement to draw viewers into your world.

? Even with a smartphone, aim for a cinematic feel in your shooting style.

? Safety and respect come first!

Secure permissions before filming and respect privacy and public order.

? For crowded areas, try shooting early in the morning or during off-peak hours.

? Now—pick up your camera and go!

Whether it’s a smartphone or a DSLR, the equipment doesn’t matter—your perspective does.

Show the world the “hidden place” only you know.
