How are the videos judged?
A panel of judges will rate the video based on the criteria listed in the official rules. The five highest scores each week will become Semi-Finalists and will compete for the Winning prize of up to $1,000. Judges base their ratings on the personality of the video’s featured subject (25%), originality (25%), composition (25%), and reflection of theme (25%). In the event of a tie, the winning entry will be the entry among the tied entries with the highest score in the originality criterion.
