Your Prom, Your Way Video Contest
The Prom Expo Video Contest is closed. Look back next year for details on the next contest.
Do you have great pickup lines for snagging a date? Do you have fabulous ideas for hair and makeup? Whatever it is, use your creativity and create a video about prom YOUR way. You can enter three ways:
- Come to the Teen Space at your local library location to pick up release forms and upload your video.
- Upload your video on YouTube tagged with the letters YourPromYourWayDC.
- Email your video to promcontest@gmail.com.
All people captured in the video must be between the ages of 13 and 18 and must submit a release form, either via email or to a neighborhood library. A maximum of six people are allowed in each video entry.
Two winners will be announced -- our Prom King and Queen -- at the Prom Expo on April 6, 2013 and will win free hairstyling, haircuts, a dress and tuxedo!
