Guidelines - Your Minute to the World Video

Your Minute to the World Video: Guidelines

Think of this as your global platform to draw attention to something that is important to you. When creating your video project, please keep the following questions in mind:

1. If you had only 60 seconds, and the whole world was your audience, what would you say?

2. What would be the best way to get your message across? With music? With pictures? With words? Would a combination of all three work best or should you just stick with one?

3. What is the purpose of your video? What is your message? Do you want to make people aware of something? Do you want to call for an action?

Important items to remember:

· Each video should be no more than 60 seconds. Individual or whole-class submissions are accepted.

· We accept the following video formats: mpg, .mp3, .mp4, .mov, .wma, .avi, .flv. We cannot accept .mswmm (Microsoft Windows Movie Maker).

· Do not include student last names or ages in your video.

· Videos should be both informative and visually appealing. Use primary sources where possible. Please cite all sources at the end of your video.

· Where possible, students should do the talking. Young ePals around the world are most interested in listening to their peers.

· If your students are under the age of 13, please be sure that you have parents sign permission slips that permit their children’s likenesses to be posted on our website.

· Please feel free to have students speak in your native language. But remember, many students who will not be native speakers will be watching the video. Speak clearly. English subtitles are a great addition if your video is competed in another language.
