    As BMW Group Malaysia’s longest-running creative initiative, the BMW Shorties continues to celebrate and elevate local talent, offering finalists a shot at the prestigious Grand Prize: an RM80,000 production grant.

    Corporate Communications and Sustainability Director at BMW Group Malaysia, Sashi Ambihaipahan, commented on the competition's growth: “Last year’s theme, ‘EVOLVE,’ marked a transformation in how we celebrate local digital content creators. This year, with ‘PULSE,’ we have seen this momentum surge forward as we continue to push creative boundaries and develop the passion for creative storytelling. With a brand-new record of 152 submissions, we are encouraged more than ever before in the enduring passion for digital content creation in Malaysia, and we are proud to see the BMW Shorties be a platform that continuously nurtures and supports this art and creativity.”

    The judging panel, which includes prominent figures from the Malaysian creative industry, was captivated by this year’s submissions.

    “Going through this year’s pool of submissions has been an incredible experience yet again,” said award-winning director and 2024 BMW Shorties judge Nadiah Hamzah. “The drive was apparent in each story, and I believe that our creatives this year perfectly encapsulated the meaning of ‘PULSE,’ in showcasing what keeps their creative spirit going.”

    Fellow judge Tunku Mona Riza shared her thoughts, highlighting the diversity of perspectives and genres represented this year. “It was truly a delight to witness such a wide range of genres this year, each bringing its own unique perspective towards the theme of ‘PULSE’. From heartfelt dramas to bold experimental films, we could feel the passion and dedication from all the participants.”

    The finalists' works will be screened on December 7 at REXKL, Kuala Lumpur, allowing the public to view these projects and hear firsthand from the creators.
