 The Important Details . . .

• Acts, lyrics and costumes must be elementary school appropriate
• All acts must be UNDER two minutes in length. (Whether live or video)

Tips for your Video

• When taking the video, please record in horizontal orientation (as opposed to vertical).

• Use natural light if possible and a clean background. 
• Prop the recording device (Smartphone or video camera) on something stationary like a tripod or a table to avoid shaky footage
• Do not add your name in text, but if text is part of your video that is fine!
