We want to see you! Photo and video submissions are desired, and don't have to be a polished production. We're seeking genuine, authentic stories--selfies included! Think Instagram story.

Consider these video tips to enhance your video submission:

  • Go Horizontal: Film content from your mobile device in landscape mode. 

  • Good Lighting: Ensure your face is well-lit, preferably with natural light facing you. Avoid backlit setups that can leave you in shadow.

  • Clear Audio: Use a quiet room and speak clearly. Consider using an external microphone if the built-in mic doesn't provide clear audio.

  • Stable Footage: Use a tripod or steady surface to hold your device. Avoid handheld shots that can be shaky.

  • Simple Background: Choose a simple, uncluttered background that won't distract from your message.

  • Eye Contact: Look directly at the camera to create a sense of engagement with your audience.

  • Concise Content: Keep your story or message focused and concise. Aim for 1 minute or less.

  • Practice: Do a quick rehearsal before recording. Knowing what you want to say helps in delivering a clear, coherent message.
