About this event
Digital Video Production has you plan and produce a video on the topic FBLA releases each year, tailored to a specific audience. Team event (1 to 3 members). How it runs: there is no test. You submit a link to the video (no more than two minutes long), which is judged before the conference and played during your presentation, then present live: 3 minutes to set up, a 7-minute presentation, and 3 minutes of questions. Internet access is provided. At the National Leadership Conference your pre-judged score is added to your preliminary presentation score to decide who advances to the final round, and the final presentation decides the winners.
