EE Video Competition - UCLA Electrical Engineering

UCLA Electrical Engineering Video Competition
– Open to everyone and with more than $3000 total award
All the undergraduate and graduate students, researchers and interested parties are invited to
submit their video entries to our EE video competition, which will award more than $3,000 to
the winning teams: Diamond Prize: $1,500, Platinum Prize: $1,000 and Gold Prize: $750.
A successful video must be “Fun” – broadly defined, and needs to target Freshman Students to
stimulate their interest in and raise their curiosity about our EE department at UCLA.
Each video entry will be strictly limited to 1 minute, and because of this time restriction no
single video will be able to compressively cover all the aspects of our department. Having
acknowledged this, there will be at least 3 winner videos, which can diversely focus on different
themes to promote our EE department.
Submission Deadline: October 31, 2014 at 5:00 p.m. (PDT)
