Description: Global Dialogues Peer Pressure Video Challenge, winning video from Ghana In the Global Dialogues Video Challenges, young people around the world are challenged to create a video to finish the story we began in our short intro video. The Video Challenge on Peer Pressure invited young filmmakers to imagine how a young man would react to pressure involving drugs, drinking and sex. Disparaging attitudes toward girls was also addressed. This film is made up of the intro video by Sidarth Kantamneni, Ideas United, USA + the winning conclusion video by Gaba Collins Ayikwei of Ghana. Here is the list of Gaba Collins Ayikwei’s cast and crew: Cast Joey: Moiko Yenubenant Emmanuel Dee: Eric Nana Agyemfra Mike: Gaba Collins Ayikwei Sam: Albert Mould Arhin Crew Camera: Wutor Mahama Baleng and Theophilus Budu-Arthur Screenplay: Maxwell Aladago Director: Gaba Collins Ayikwei Editor: Francis Oti-Mensah The winner’s statement: ''We appreciate being selected as part of the winners of such an educating challenge. We do strongly believe that the good guys should not succumb to the negative influences from their peers but rather they should try hard to influence their peers positively. This will make the world a better place. Thank You. #POSITIVE PEER PRESSURE'' The Global Dialogues Video Challenges are an innovative, intercreative approach to making short YouTube films on global social issues. Here's how it works: We produce the beginning of a short film and post it to YouTube. Then, young people across the world compete with one another by creating and uploading videos that continue and finish the story. Participants are asked to make videos that reflect their vision of a better world, helping characters in the film to find positive solutions to the problems they face.
