Lights, Camera, Action!

In a short 1 to 3-minute video, MPE would like to see what you would change in your home or high school to help conserve on energy. 

We're not asking for a masterpiece, but the videos will be judged and scored based on these five factors:

Creativity and Originality: How unique and innovative can you get without going overboard?

Quality: This covers the overall thought and care that went into your production. 

Performance: If the video includes acting, how convincing and impactful are the performances?

Impact and Message: Does it leave a lasting impression or provoke thought or change?

Audience Engagement: Does it keep viewers interested throughout?
