Study in Holland VDO contest

05 Jul 2010

Study in Holland VDO contest was organised in the Netherlands asking students to submit a vdo showing their student lives. All 23 participants of the contest we’re very enthusiastic and this was reflected in their videos. However, a few videos stood out from the rest. The differed from the other participants in their creativeness and the way they have captured their personal experience.

The Winner

After watching many videos, the jury decided that the winner of the Study in Holland video contest is….

Claudia Jarufe Montagne from Peru with ‘DISCOVER HOLLAND 2009’!

 

The jury was impressed with the energy of the video. In a funny way she has managed to show her own unique experience of what it is like to study in Holland. The video is supported by a cheerful song that has great timing with the images she shows. The jury also believed Claudia has shown a nice combination of study time vs free time. The combination of video and photo makes the video strong.
