Middle School Winter Storytelling

Event Description:

Winter Storytelling is a NEW event! Here are the rules:

1. Students perform a winter- or holiday-themed story as if they are performing for an audience of children. The story may be published OR original (written by the performer).

2. Performers CAN wear costumes and use props.

3. Performers can use a book/binder OR perform from memory.

4. Performers may be seated OR may use all space available to them, provided that they stay on camera the entire time.

5. Performance should include an introduction that gives the title and author of the story. If it is an original story, the performer should state so. The introduction may also include additional information about the story, including theme, inspiration, etc.

6. Performances have a MAXIMUM time limit of 10 minutes (plus 30 second grace period).

7. The story can be humorous or serious, but it should be kid-appropriate. The final round will have at least one kid judge.

All recordings should have a stable and stationary camera (no panning, no zooming, no moving), and competitors must remain on screen at all times. Performances and speeches must be unedited, but competitors may trim the beginning and end of videos to cut themselves setting up, starting, and/or stopping the camera.
