The site is multi-language and we rely on our audience to translate the content in as many languages as possible.

We would for this documentary to have a worldwide impact, and to make this possible we developed this site to support multiple languages. Now there are only a few, but we’d like for You to get involved!

• Do you like the idea?
• Is there an audience in your language?
• Can you use your skills to support us?
• Could you help as part of a school or college project?

Whatever the reason, we’d love you to help us out, maybe even by telling your friends about us

Maybe you have a friend you’d like to send the trailer but he might not understand the language?

Our videos incorporate the Universal Subtitles widget that allow you add subtitles in  your language.

Why not subtitle the video here?

If you feel like it, just click on the subtitle button, and start making your version.

Want to be involved in a deeper capacity, gain professional experience and maybe even join in our adventures? Just send a mail and let us know where you’d like to help.

We have scheduled 2 months to shoot in the archipelago. We still need to find an underwater camera person. Are you the one we are looking for?

We are planning to shoot a few underwater sequences for this documentary, but nobody of our team has the experience nor the gear, and in Cape Verde we had difficulties finding someone up to the job.

Are you an underwater camera person and want to meet us in Cape Verde for a week? Write us a mail stating your interest and please include a link to your showreel.

Do you have a friend that might be interested? Why not link him this page?

Unfortunately for this job we can only allow a fee that will cover all the expenses, check out the budget to see for yourself.

If you feel like helping us out with this aspect of production, and are happy to do it just for the fame, let us know.
Just drop us a line also if you just want to discuss all this a little further.

If you take part in the project you will be credited in the film and get a profile in the Team page.

As our first major crowd-sourcing experiment we decided to open a competition for the realization of the film’s ideogram and logotype.

Some say that the crowd has talent, We believe them!
Are you a graphic designer? Can you do the job? You are in the team!

Are you a professional designer and want to become part of the team?
Or are you a graphics amateur wanting to give your shot at this?
Maybe you are a student looking to find the perfect work to bring to the exams and want to make something that becomes real?

If you participate with your idea, you will get a behind the scenes access through our subscribers’ newsletter for producers and a special note on our web site.
If you win the contest your work will become the logo of this project, and you will become the designer for this project with a profile in the team page and a credit in the film. Check out the budget to see how much is allocated for this paid job.

If you choose to take part in the contest, here are some guidelines:

You should submit a finished and fully developed graphic idea for a logo (ideogram) and the ‘Sandgrains’ text (logotype) connected to it.

The idea should be that these two elements go together but can also be used separately.

Keep in mind that this creation of yours, if selected, will be giving the tone to the entire graphic visualization of the project on different media.

The design should take inspiration from the issues explored in the film; there is a lot of information in this web page, but if you would like to discuss further any aspect relating even remotely to the work you intend to do, don’t hesitate to drop us a mail.

If your work is ready for submission just export a full resolution image, and send it along with your full contact details to Jordie or Gabriel, whose contacts you can find here.

If you win the contest and accept to be the graphic designer for the project, bear in mind that this is an innovative but also risky way of making a film, and we can’t foresee how much we will be able to fundraise.

Your involvement is the most precious thing we have!

Do you believe in the project and think it can make some kind of impact?

Share your thoughts with your contacts!

Write about it in your blog!

Spread the word on Twitter, Facebook and other destinations! 

Our project relies on word of mouth, so please consider making the leap from just following the project to having an impact.

If you're a journalist, then perhaps your audience might be fascinated to hear about all the cool stuff we're doing. We're currently compiling a Press Kit where you'll be able to find some relevant info but for the meantime you can send us a mail and we'll be happy to answer any questions.

Have you got relevant info or want to take part in the research? You can join the team!

Maybe you are from Cape Verde and have some suggestions,
or you are a student specializing in fisheries or ocean biology;
you could also be just somebody into these issues or have taken this project by heart.

If you have any relevant information around the issues we want to investigate, why not share them with the production team?

Why not become a part of our ongoing research?
If you'd like to go more in depth why not drop us a line and discuss how you could help to consolidate this stage of production.

If together we decide to start a collaboration, you will be credited in the film as part of the research team and have a special note on this website.
