Consider sharing photos from behind the scenes of your documentary production for your chance to win a $100 cash prize!
This year, C-SPAN will select and award up to 10 teams who will each receive a $100 cash prize simply for sharing photos from the production of their StudentCam documentary on social media.
Upload as many or few photos as you like, and share with your personal social media network of choice. Tag us, and submit screengrabs of any posts that you would like to share, and you’ll be entered to win!
Step 1: Take photos during the planning, production, and editing of your StudentCam documentary.
Step 2: Share your photos on social media, tell us about your experience, and include the hashtag #StudentCam2026.
Step 3: Email educate@c-span.org with screengrabs of your post(s), the names of your team members, and your school name.
To be eligible to win one of the 10 prizes, you must also submit a documentary in the 2026 StudentCam competition.
Share as many photos and posts as you like.
Deadline to submit is 11:59pm (PST) on Tuesday, January 20, 2026.
Winners will be announced on the StudentCam website in March.
