Q: Can I send a clip I found online?
A: No. Unless permission is given in writing from its owner, any music, video, or other content that has been not created by you cannot be used in your video. So, if your video clip contains any material that belongs to someone else and you haven't gotten permission to use it, we won't be able to accept your entry. (This means you can't put a clip from the news or ESPN in your video-- even if your school was on the news.)

Q: Can I put music in my video?
A: No. Unless permission is given in writing from its owner, any music that has been not created by you cannot be used in your video.

Q: Do I have to fill out all the fields on the entry form?
A: Yes. Otherwise, we won't be able to accept your video. So be sure to follow all the directions!
