To start the Magirus Instagram channel, and for the approaching Conrad Dietrich Magirus Awards, the so-called "Oscar of the firefighting industry" – which will be awarded this year in three categories – Magirus is holding a competition. The prize for the first- and second-place winners of the competition will be four tickets to the awards night including overnight stay and a tour of the Magirus plant. Thirteen 2017 Magirus wall calendars will be given away as well.
Magirus presents
The Social Media team at the Magirus Excellence Center has decided to capture the everyday hustle and bustle in a "mannequin challenge". The mannequin challenge is a new viral Internet trend, in which videos are produced with actors standing in place as though frozen – like mannequins. This trend probably started with students from Jacksonville, Florida. It has inspired imitators worldwide, including notable politicians, artists, athletes – and now, Magirus.
Now, fire departments are sought
What we can do, you have done for ages! Convince us with your creative ideas! To win, you must film your own mannequin challenge and make it available to us by link in accordance with the terms and conditions for participation. The conditions for the challenge? Actors in firefighting clothing and a Magirus vehicle or product. The following is necessary to participate in the competition:
- Posting the video on Facebook in our Magirus chronicle
- OR Post the contribution on your own Instagram public profile (with link to Magirus and use of hashtags)
- Subsequently, completion of the application form on the website (don't forget the link to the post!)
- Acceptance of the terms and conditions
It is not sufficient solely to post the video on the Social Media channels without sending the links in the completed form. All contributions that reach us by 30 December and that meet the terms and conditions will be considered and judged by a jury. Those responsible for the most creative ideas can then enjoy their prizes.
We look forward to receiving numerous submissions!
