Last year, teens from our region created the winning video. It was incredible, and the winners were very excited to have their work recognized. Take a few minutes and pass this information on to film clubs and media classes at the local high school!
This
is the second year that Wisconsin will participate in the Collaborative Summer
Library Program (CSLP) Teen Video Challenge. Information about the contest,
including entry and release forms, can be found at http://pld.dpi.wi.gov/pld_ys-sn.
For
the contest, teens should create a video promoting Summer Reading at the public
library, including an interpretation of the 2014 CSLP teen slogan "Spark a
Reaction," to win $275 and a $125 award for the library. Any teen, aged 13
-18, can enter the CSLP 2014 Teen Video Challenge in the state where they
reside. Videos can be created individually or as a team. Each participating
CSLP member state will select one winner. Additional information, including
promotional resources and video creation resources, can be found at http://cslpreads.org/challenge-overview.html.
The
deadline for entries is Friday, February 14, 2014. The state winner
will be selected in March 2014 and national selections will be announced in
April 2014.
