Congratulations to all of the recently named CSPA Crown Finalists! There’s (still) clearly something in our Northern California water to have so many national award-winning publications in newspaper and yearbook. Congratulations especially to the staffs and advisers at Antelope HS, Casa Roble HS, Granite Bay HS and Whitney HS!

Here’s a post for our broadcast friends…Apple is hosting a video competition on October 13. Here are the details from the apple website:
Calling all high school and college filmmakers.
On Saturday, October 13 at 9:00 a.m. (Eastern time), we’ll post a top-secret list of elements — special props, dialogue, settings — you get the idea. Choose any three to include in your movie. Then all you and your team have to do is write, cast, shoot, edit, score, and upload your 3-minute masterpiece within 24 hours. No problem, right?
Once the films are in, your friends, family, and adoring fans will be able to watch them online and rate their favorites. The 25 entries with the highest rating on November 9 at 12:00 a.m. EST will be screened by industry professionals, including Barry Sonnenfeld, James Mangold, and Nora Ephron.
If your film is the biggest hit with either the public or the pros, each member of your team will receive a MacBook Pro, Final Cut Studio 2, Logic Studio, and Shake so you can get started on that first sequel. How’s that for a Hollywood ending?
