This project by the Europlanet French Hub will showcase emerging scientists in a series of engaging 1-minute videos. Each early-career scientist (ECS) presents an “elevator pitch” highlighting their research, followed by another short film in which they share their experiences as ECS. Participants will receive expert guidance on on-camera presence, effective communication, and succinctly conveying the essence of their work.

This project aims to amplify ECS voices by creating accessible and compelling formats for science communication that will be shared on social media platforms. Equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) will be prioritised, ensuring that the produced films reflect these values by showcasing various voices and perspectives within the scientific community. Filming will take place in Grenoble, allowing us to feature ECS from diverse scientific fields, each offering unique insights and making significant contributions.

Encouraging ECS to share their research, experiences, and career paths serves a dual purpose: it enhances their communication skills while demystifying complex geoscience topics, effectively bridging the gap between scientific discovery and the public.
