“Nice production! There were several instances of creative editing on the transitions. Stayed on message, obvious student involvement.”
“I very much enjoyed the use of lots and lots of videos and photos of the students actually participating at the school.  I can see that students are happy, healthy and cared for at the school first-hand through the video.”

2nd Place
Cambridge High School
“I really enjoyed viewing your entry video and think it could be used for promotions in the future at your school.”
“The music often coordinated with the actions of the video in a really nice way.”
“There were some very creative and fun transitions such as when the ping-pong ball was suddenly a huge exercise ball.  These transitions help to keep the viewer engaged and paying attention.”
Cambridge wins $250 toward a student project!
3rd Place
Accelerated Learning Academy
“It was a terrific idea to use your principal at the beginning to give an overview.  No one else did that in the other videos.  The places in which the interviews were conducted became very engaging backdrops to show off the school!  One student said it well when he declared what a nice job they do with their decorating” 🙂
