To officially kick off the arrival of this “Movie Master” smartphone, the brand is inviting amateur Filipino filmmakers, who are at least 18 years old, to join the 2021 Movie Masters Program Short Film Competition.
The program aims to showcase moving moments from everyday life through original videos shot using the CAMON 18 Premier.
Perfect for filmmakers, the CAMON 18 series is the most advanced pro-camera phone to come out of the CAMON line.
The CAMON 18 Premier variant equips itself with an ultra-steady Stabilized Gimbal Camera.
It delivers a #SuperSteadyShot in every video, which aspiring filmmakers can experience firsthand when they join the Movie Masters Program.

Criteria and prizes
Entries receive assessments based on storytelling, creativity and originality, and engagement.
After the Qualifier Round, three semi-finalists for the Movie Masters Program will go through a selection process by TECNO Mobile, from among all the submitted videos.
Each semifinalist will receive a cash prize of Php 25,000, along with a CAMON 18 Premier smartphone.
Semi-finalists will need to create short videos, with the theme “Capturing Moving Moments in the Philippines.”
All semifinal videos require being shot using CAMON 18 Premier.
This gives participants the chance to see the Movie Master smartphone in action, and experience its Super Steady Shot feature.
Submitted videos must focus on one of three subjects.
The participant’s hometown or city, to show what life is like there; an upcoming holiday, such as a vacation, get-together, or celebration that they are looking forward to; or daily life scenes featuring real people around them.
The filmmaker with the best video among the semi-finalists will receive the title of Grand Winner.
A global release
The winning video will be selected based on storytelling, creativity and originality, and engagement, along with its technical quality, which includes cinematography, editing, background music, sound effects, and other audio.
The Grand Winner will receive a Php 300,000 film grant, together with the opportunity to create a short film about capturing moving moments in the Philippines, with the help of top local director, Paul Soriano, and his team at TEN17P.
The completed short film will receive a global release this December and will feature 2021 in retrospect, conveying the message that, while life may shake us, we are all capable of overcoming challenges in order to live a steady life, with a beautiful and stable future to look forward to.
A runner-up will receive the title of TECNO Mobile’s 2022 Tourism Ambassador and a Holiday Travel Fund amounting to Php 40,000.
