MyIsrael Video CompetitionAdd Your Voice
 

An Independent Video Competition Marking Israel's Video60th Year of Independence

Express how Israel has touched you.  Share a viewpoint.  Profile a friend.  Ask tough questions.  Reminisce about a trip.  Contribute to an ongoing dialogue.

Two minutes or less.

The competition will begin at 12:01am on January 1, 2008 and end on February 29, 2008 at midnight.

Upload your video to my.israel.org.

Finalists will be selected by an expert panel.  First place will be determined in an open online vote.  Finalists receive a free trip to AJC's Annual Meeting in Washington, DC, and their films will be screened in front of hundreds of leaders from around the world.  First place gets a special trip to Israel.  What else?

Note: you must be 18-26 to enter the competition.

Share Your Vision

 The competition is sponsored by the American Jewish Committee in association with Hillel and the Israel on Campus Coalition.
