General Requirements

 

Eligible

Participants

This contest is open to all K – 12 students in the Flagler County School District.   

Production Teams
Projects must be produced by a team of 2 or 3 students.  Each team must complete an entry form and have it signed by their sponsor.

The entry may be an assignment that was part of a regular academic program, or may be a creative endeavor that is student-initiated, however, it must be related to the curriculum of at least one of the student-producers’ courses

All entries must be original student work. Sponsor guidance and instruction are acceptable, but planning, production, and operation of equipment should be the work of the students.

The entry must be suitable for student viewing.

Entries must have been completed within the current school year. Each project may be entered only once.

Each entry must have an adult sponsor who is a teacher, a media specialist, or a school administrator. An adult may sponsor more than one entry.

The sponsor will be the main contact representing the entry. While most communication will be done via e-mail, questions may arise around the time of judging and we will need a phone number where the sponsor can be reached during non-school hours.

Entries will be classified by category and grade level. If a group of student producers spans multiple grade levels, the majority grade level will apply.
(K-3,  4-6,  7-8,  9-12)

The required length of the entry will depend on the type of project and is explained in the “Categories” section.

Follow Digital Safety Guidelines - your project may be selected as a sample for the web. Only student first names should be included in the credits at the end of the project.
