Tate TV Production Students Seek To Win Video Competition
April 4, 2010
TV Production students from Tate High School’s Multimedia Academy are asking for your help so they can win a video contest to encouraging teens not to drink and drive.
This month, students in Tate High School’s TV Production classes entered the annual “Don’t Drink and Drive” video contest sponsored by the Lewis Bear Company and WEAR TV. Judges selected two of Tate’s videos as finalists; Tate is the only Escambia County public school to earn this recognition. The other two video finalists are from Milton and Catholic High Schools.
The director of Tate’s Multimedia Academy, Cynthia Reeves, urges “Please take a few minutes to text in your vote. These students worked very hard for this and deserve to win. Let’s show the community how proud we are of our talented young people.”
The winning school receives $1,000 and the video will play on Channel 3 during prom season.
To vote, send a text from your phone to 45203 and then type either DDD2 or DDD4 in the message area, denoting the second and fourth videos that are from Tate. To view the videos, click here.
