2016 Teen Video Challenge under way
Image
It's no secret that teenagers LOVE to make videos. A contest has just started that can put all of their video-making talent to good use.
The Washington State Library and the Collaborative Summer Library Program have launched the 2016 Teen Video Challenge, a national video competition for teens to get involved with reading and their public library's summer reading program.
Teens are invited to create a 30-to-90-second video with their unique interpretation of the 2016 summer reading slogan “Get in the Game – READ.” The idea is to involve teens in summer reading, before and during the summer months, by being part of the process. This is an opportunity for teens to showcase their creativity and have their ideas seen and heard by a national audience. The winning video will be named one of the 2016 Teen Videos to promote summer reading nationwide.
A $150 award will go to the creator of Washington’s winning video and his or her associated public library will receive prizes worth at least $50 from CSLP and Upstart. Winners will be announced by CSLP in April.
For full details about the Teen Video Challenge and to find out how to enter Washington’s competition, please go here. Entries must be received by March 25.
