Photo title: 繁星下的幻鏡千眼魚
Photo description: 參加觀星活動，特意途經糧船灣，觀看夜光版《幻鏡千眼魚》藝術裝置，天上繁星與地上波浪形圖案互相交織。「星點點，月團團。倒流河漢入杯盤」在未發明電力而製造的光污染前，古人每晚都可看到滿天繁星，因此創作出很多與星空有關的美麗詩詞。現代人在城市裡生活久了，會忘記我們是在一個被浩瀚繁星包含的小星球上。隨著科技的發展，我們的目光常常被電視螢幕，手機和社交媒體所吸引，而忽略了與大自然的連結和對宇宙的敬畏。

Video title: 西貢海回憶

Video title: 西貢海藝術節 From the Air
Video description: 如何融入周遭環境的同時能吸引遊人注意，是創作戶外藝術品的重大難題。
本片全以航拍機拍攝，於空中掠影西貢海藝術節所舉辦的地點(滘西洲、糧船灣、鹽田梓、橋咀島)，呈現各處藝術節展品如何與島上環境融為一體，而又讓遊人駐足玩味細賞。

Second runner-up

Video description: 在這段影片中，記錄了糧船灣在西貢海藝術節2024的精彩景貌和活動，包括藝術家再聚：鰲魚和麒麟旗製作體驗、舞獅體驗、食得是福，以及遍佈糧船灣的各種藝術品。

Merit award
Winner: Kengi Tsui
Video title: 藝術節大使日常
Video description: 西貢海藝術節是三年之約，作為藝術節大使，我曾經很認真問自己，為什麼要繼續緊守這個崗位，回報是什麼？如果要用時間金錢衡量，這件事就變得沒有靈魂。
大使的角色，很像一道橋樑，原來我們不單是介紹作品的工作人員，還會有自己的感情與感受，可能是這樣速成了具立體感的畫面與記憶，令人情味更濃厚。

Merit award
Winner: Sonniewing Y
Video title: 沉浸式在西貢海
Video description: 認識一個可能快被人遺忘的地方 – 西貢海。從開船出海的一刻，你會發現香港另一個非常美麗的自然境觀；落船後你更會發現不同的裝置藝術、壁畫及不同島嶼的歷史，絕對值得你花上1-2天時間發掘及認識，感受大自然及藝術氣息。
