Vancouver Film School Videos

Here are three passionate, creative and inspirational short movies that have won scholarships to the Vancouver Film School in Canada for three young filmmakers from Mexico, Germany and the United States.

The challenge was to make a three-minute video on the theme ‘What matters most to me’. A judging panel picked ten finalists, then YouTube users voted for the winners. The results were announced last week, and here are the three winning videos.

Jorge Rolando Caneda Estrada from Mexico

Stefan Ramirez Perez from Germany

Christopher Harrell from the United States

The Road Not Taken

A Poem by Robert Frost.

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I —
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
