24 Jul - BMW Group Malaysia today announces the return of the BMW Shorties 2024, the premium automaker's initiative for digital content creation.

Celebrating its 18th year running with a new theme; PULSE - the BMW Shorties aims to challenge local content creators in finding new and creative ways to innovate storytelling and pursue their passions in the creative medium.

Sashi Ambi, Director of Corporate Communications and Sustainability at BMW Group Malaysia said, "Last year, the BMW Shorties underwent a transformation, evolving to find new unconventional ways to showcase the exceptional talents of local digital content creators. This, in turn, fuelled us to break through creative boundaries with a reignited passion."

"This year, the theme, an inspiration from our passion in driving electrified mobility forward and the many first-of-its-kind initiatives here, serves as motivation to keep on driving the newest ideas and concepts for innovation as well as setting new benchmarks and standards. We are thrilled to once again invite creatives to dive deep into their passions, and find the pulse of their craft, creating more deeply meaningful approaches to storytelling."

Jeany Amir shared, "It is a privilege to return to the judging panel this year and to be able to share new and compelling insights that I have gained since my last run of the competition. PULSE as a theme is particularly resonant, as it pushes our local talent to revisit the core of their passions, and how this can be translated through their creation. I am confident that this year will be filled with a vast array of even more captivating and profound narratives."
