Judging Criteria

Naturally, the videos will be judged on whether or not we feel like you answer the "Who are you?" question.

In addition, the prizes will be awarded based on the following categories:


Grand Prize (Best Overall Video)
Sound quality, cinematography, score, and story will be judged most critically in this category. (You do not have to have music to be eligible.)

Category Winners

Best Comedy
We're looking for clever and funny videos that still tell us your story.

Best Foreign Film
Subtitles are appreciated!

People's Choice Award
Yes, you can vote too. "Like" videos at spu.edu/admissionsfacebook. (Click on the "video contest" app at the top of the page.) The video with the most "likes" by 5 p.m. on September 19 will win the People's Choice Award!

Best Original Score
Let us know if you'd like to be considered for this category by writing "original score" when you upload the video. Covered music doesn't count — it has to be something written by you!


We want to make you a SPU-lebrity! So, if you submit a video, you are granting us permission to show the video.

Our intention is to award a prize for every category. But if we don't see a clear winner, we reserve the right to keep the prizes for ourselves.
