Newbery Rules

The Rules:

  • We encourage students to take the lead in driving the film projects, with adults providing support and guidance as needed.
  • Aim to create films with a runtime of approximately 90 seconds.
  • Your film should be based on a Newbery award-winning or Newbery Honor book.
  • Avoid creating book trailers or video book reports. Instead, focus on producing full dramatizations featuring primarily child actors, effectively capturing the entire essence of the book within 90 seconds.
  • Please refrain from using Powtoon or any other animation software for your submissions.
  • Let your imagination run wild! Feel free to experiment with different genres and storytelling techniques.
  • Don't forget to submit your video entry by March 24, 2025. Good luck!
