Win $2,500 and $250 weekly cash prizes!

You've seen what kicklights are all about. Here’s an opportunity to show what you can do - and be rewarded for your effort. We want to spread the word about kicklight, and we think that many people have what it takes to make something really cool.

YOUR TASK — Create a kicklight on whatever topic or theme that you want. Some examples:

               ⇒  a travel video with kicks describing each location in more detail and links to a map
               ⇒  a speech or interview video with kicks providing “fact check” commentary
               ⇒  an art portfolio video with the kicks displaying the name of each work and their inspiration
               ⇒  a comedy video with kicks that comment on what’s occurring in the video

YOUR GOAL — Use the functionality that kicklight offers to create a unique, highly compelling experience for viewers. Chances are that if you love what you create, other people will as well - including the judges!

Each week from March 2nd through the week of May 4th, we'll pick the winner of a $250 weekly prize. On May 20th, we’ll announce the $2,500 grand prize winner chosen from the pool of weekly winners.

The winning kicklights will be judged on:

               40% - Use of kicks (visual enhancement to the video; usefulness of links)

               40% - Popularity and viewer engagement (views, click-through rate, rating, and comments)

               20% - Creativity (original concepts and style)
