1.) Create a short video (3 minutes maximum) either nominating yourself or a fellow graduating senior. Make sure you make the name of the nominee and the high school he or she attends clear in your video. Videos should highlight the nominated senior's individuality, achievements, goals, and why he or she deserves to win a car, but creativity is highly encouraged. Visit the Downloads page for optional songs, logos, and videos that you can, but are not required to use in your video.

2.) Upload your video to YouTube. If you do not already have a YouTube account, you will have to create one to complete this step. Click here for more information regarding uploading videos to YouTube.

3.) Return to this site and complete the Submit Entry form. Fill out all necessary fields, copy and paste the link to your YouTube video into the last blank, and check all proper boxes.

4.) Shortly after, you will receive a message confirming your submission and discussing several forms. Everyone appearing in the video must complete and submit a Talent Release form. Anyone under the age of 18 appearing in the video must also complete a Parental Permission form. These forms can be accessed on the Downloads page. You should submit these forms immediately after submitting your video (instructions on how to submit appear on the forms themselves). Your video will not be able to be uploaded on the competition website until all of these forms are submitted.

5.) Encourage family, friends, and community members to visit www.BakersfieldHyundaiGraduationGiveaway.com to view and vote on your video. We wish you the best of luck!
