INSTRUCTIONS TO SUBMIT YOUR VIDEO

Develop a plan

Students, or teams of students may submit videos of 3 minutes or less.

We greatly encourage guidance and collaboration with school staff, (as educators may be able to provide help with editing programs and other aspects of production) but it’s not required.

The registration form will ask students who are submitting on their own to identify a faculty member for contacting and awards coordination purposes.

Produce video and submit registration form

Videos may be music videos, narrated videos, documentary style or present material in the form of short plays. In short, the sky’s the limit on creativity; as long as it’s three minutes or less.
