Fight for Show!
Supported by the Labour and Welfare Bureau’s Community Investment and Inclusion Fund (CIIF), and jointly organised by Newzpire Limited and Active Concept Limited, the programme allows students to learn by experience through “Edutainment”, with a network of different schools, companies and social platforms. From 2018 to 2020, 20 “Teen Production Studios “ were set up in local schools in Hong Kong.
The Teen Production Studios are under the guidance of up-and-coming directors. Each one worked on a five-minute mini-drama on the themes of mental health, ethnicity, technology, disability and intergenerational inclusion. The stories are based on real-life cases referred by welfare organisations. The 20 mini-dramas are showcased on social platforms, roadshows in schools and corporate and community screenings. Selected works have entered into local and international film festivals, including: Copenhagen Web Fest、Busan International Kids and Youth Film Festival “Ready~Action!” Competition, San Bernardino Valley College International Student Film Festival, First-Time Filmmaker Sessions, Ufa Youth Short Film Festival, Shorties Film Festival, KinoDuel International Film Festival.
Through the production of these videos, the programme aims to let secondary school students delve into their communities, learn about social inclusion issues first-hand and think deeply about them. They have to work as a team and use their creativity to solve the various problems that might arise during the process, enhancing their problem-solving abilities as preparation to overcome the many challenges that life will throw at them in the future.

Introduction of Community Investment and Inclusion Fund
Community Investment and Inclusion Fund (CIIF) was set up by the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in 2002 to implement diversified social capital development projects in the community, promote reciprocity between the public and different sectors, and build together cross-sectoral collaborative platforms and social support networks. The Fund seeks to build social capital – to garner mutual trust, spirit of cooperation and social cohesion, and enhance mutual support among individuals, families and organisations so that our community can grow from strength to strength.

Fight For Show! Brand Image
“Fight for Show!” is a video production project based on the community itself. In each phase, we select a group of people from a particular segment, in the process of producing the video, they could know more about the society. In 2018 - 2020, we recruited 600 secondary school students to work on their mini-drama with the theme of social inclusion. The most iconic thing of the Fight for Show logo is the cinema-like projection effect; the big projection represents the world seen by the students, and the clashing colours represent the social inclusion theme. We believe that meshing different cultures together could bring new ideas and colours to society, and could achieve harmony ultimately.
