Newsletter of the College of Architecture at Texas A&M University
All Aggie students are eligible to show off their moviemaking skills by entering the “Why I’m An Aggie” video contest, with the creator of the top video receiving a Feb. 16 Texas A&M – Texas men’s basketball game VIP package.
The contest, sponsored by the Texas A&M Division of Marketing and Communications and Flip Video, is looking for fun, upbeat amateur videos that can include Aggie academics, campus life, culture, organizations, service, traditions or anything else about the Aggie experience.
The grand prize winner will receive the basketball package which includes two tickets to the Aggie-Longhorn game at Reed Arena February 16, 2009, two VIP passes to the pre-game reception which includes catered food and drinks, two passes to the post-game press conference, and an autographed basketball from Texas A&M coach Mark Turgeon.
Creators of the top video from each college will win a Flip video camera or iPod Nano.
Videos will be judged on authenticity, originality, creativity, and adherence to the Aggie Code of Honor; there’s no limit on how long the videos can last, but organizers are hoping to get lots of short videos up to two minutes long.
A video camera loan program has been established for students who need a camera to enter the contest. Details about the program, the contest, and specific instructions on submitting a video are at http://doyouwonder.tamu.edu/contest.html.
Entries must be submitted by 6 a.m. Feb. 12.
