One of the really cool things about EAA’s
new online video player is the ability for members to upload and share
their own videos. We’re going to give that capability a thorough workout
during EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2007, as we announce the first EAA
AirVenture Video Competition. Participate and you could win a new Canon
HV20 High Definition Camcorder!
“What we want to do is capture the unique
spirit, culture, and identity of the event as seen through the eyes of the
people who attend,” said Adam Smith, EAA vice president-membership. “The
ability to have people load their own videos to the AirVenture website and
actually be part of how we present their event will help infuse the whole
thing with the personal voice of EAAers.”
AirVenture’s video player currently has
several uploaded, member-submitted segments available from last year’s
convention that may give participants some ideas of what they want to
submit. Visit www.AirVenture.org
and click on the link to more AirVenture videos.
Here’s how it works:
Create an account at www.AirVenture.org/video/submit.html,
then follow the instructions for uploading your AirVenture video. (For
more information, see the contest
guidelines.) For the competition, EAA will accept video
uploads between 30 seconds and 5 minutes in length. Videos must be
uploaded no later than 11:59 p.m. Central time, on September 30, 2007, to
be eligible for the competition.
When all entries are submitted, a panel of
judges drawn from EAA's editorial staff and award-winning TV production
crew will select a shortlist of 10 videos. Videos will be selected based
on their creative expression, the way they show AirVenture activities, and
the unique community and culture that surround the event. The short-listed
videos will then be posted on www.AirVenture.org,
and an online poll will be conducted to select the winner. The poll will
run from October 4th 2007 until
11:59 PM CDT on October 19th, 2007. The winner will be announced on
October 25th, 2007.
