The aim of the contest was to make a film less than 90 seconds long with the theme, “Arrive happier with AirAsia.” The competition included animation and film categories, and the RMIT Vietnam team won in the film category, along with six other teams from different parts of the world. A total of 86 teams from Asia, Europe and the United States entered the competition.
