Together with Lockheed Martin, NetSmartz is inviting teens (ages 13-18) to submit a 30 to 60-second video that answers the question “What’s one thing teens need to know about being safer online?” Get your friends and family to vote. More votes = higher score!

HOW TO ENTER
Read the official rules! If you have any questions, please contact at etsmartz_contact@ncmec.org.

Think about the question “What’s one thing teens need to know about being safer online?” Plan a PSA around your answer. Remember, this is your time to speak up for safety, so what do you want to say?

Create your PSA! It should be at least 30 seconds long and no more than 60 seconds. You can use any style you’d like – write a script and film your friends acting it out, draw characters and animate it – it’s your choice!

Ask your friends and family to vote! Good luck!

What’s a PSA? A PSA, or public service announcement, is a short video that raises awareness about an issue. You’ve probably seen them on TV or online. You may want to look at some examples of video PSAs online for inspiration
