D.C. school captures first place in national video competition
1986
Six students at Woodson Senior High School in Washington, D.C. have won the National Nutrition Music Video Content sponsored by the Florida Department of Citrus. The contest, designed to stimulate teenagers' interest in nutrition, had two basic requirements for entries: 1) videos had to stress the nutritional value of Florida orange juice and 2) one school cafeteria staff member had to appear in them. Entries were submitted by high school students in 25 states. Students developed their own video concepts, wrote lyrics, recorded music, choreographed dance routines, and filmed the finished products. The winnning entry from Woodson High is a rap song, written and produced by the students. The video featured a 445-pound school football player and more than 200 other Woodson High students who participated in the production. Brief descriptions of some other popular entries are provided; overall, students showed remarkable creativity and imagination in the development and filming of their video productions.(aje)
