OK, here's the deal. Anyone (any age, any place) can submit an entry to the EYMF Promo Contest. Submission deadline is February 28, 2011, so there's not much time. There will be a $100 cash prize for the winning submission. EYMF officials will be the sole decider of the winning entry. The single cash prize will go to the individual submitting the winning Promo, regardless of how many people worked on the project.

Your audience is the student population of the Escondido Union School District (K-8). Your promotional video should be appropriate for and appeal to that audience and get them excited about entering their own creative work into the Escondido Youth Media Festival. Below are the only guidelines; beyond that, you are free to be as interesting, innovative, and creative as possible. If you have any questions, use the Contact EYMF link (left sidebar).

The purpose of this contest is to build awareness of, participation in and support for the Escondido Youth Media Festival, an educational activity for young children. Selection of the winner is final. The winning PSA can be used for promotional purposes as deemed necessary by the Escondido Youth Media Festival and its producer, the Escondido Education Foundation. We will properly acknowledge its creator.

 Your submission must have these elements to be considered:

  • Download this graphic; it must appear in the video
  • The video must be 30 seconds long; no more, no less
  • The 4 categories must be mentioned (see Media Categories, left sidebar)
  • You must mention submission dates: March 1-May 9, 2011
