Espoo, Finland - Nokia Nseries today announced it will be the exclusive telecom sponsor of the prestigious Young Lions Film Competition aimed at supporting and nurturing young talent in the advertising industry. Each of the creative teams in the film segment will be provided with a Nokia Nseries handset with which to shoot their entry in this famous annual competition. While the teams shoot their stories, Nokia will collect footage to produce regular video blogs highlighting teams in action at www.nseries.com/cannes. In addition, the footage will be used for a "behind the scenes" documentary that will be televised globally later on.
