Students from Liberty County Schools are International Winners for Media Production!

Each year students in Liberty County select to participate in their school level media festival competition. Possible student project types include: webpages, podcasts, sequential still presentations, interactive still presentations, and live action videos. Projects are scored using a detailed rubric by volunteers, and only superior projects advance to the next level of competition.

Hundreds of projects are entered each year, but only the superior scoring projects advance to the state festival. An even a fewer number advance to the International Student Media Festival, where project entries are submitted from counties as far away as China and Israel!

The International Student Media Festival was held in Jacksonville, Florida November 9- 12. Sixty-eight projects from Liberty County were deemed winners at the festival. Of those sixty-eight projects, eight were selected as Judges’ Favorites! Only 10% of the projects in the entire festival are awarded this extra honor. Five students from Liberty County received the prestigious Best of Festival Award. Less than 1% of the projects entered in the festival are awarded this honor!

Students selecting to attend the festival were able to participate in hands-on workshops on topics such as video editing, digital photography, multi-media storytelling, stop-motion animation, podcast production, and using iPads for media production. Families attending the festival were able to participate in the awards assembly where students received medallions and certificates.

GaETC- Exemplary and Exceptional Library Media Program

The Exemplary Media Program is a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the work that is done in the media center. Each year the schools in Liberty County take time to review the rubric. The school level media committees evaluate their programs. This year Midway Middle School and Joseph Martin Elementary were reviewed and rated highly by the school media committees. Both schools were nominated for the state honor.

Midway Middle School's program was named one of the exemplary programs in the state!

Today the exemplary and exceptional winners for elementary, middle, and high presented at the Georgia Educational Technology Conference in Atlanta, Georgia.

The Exemplary Library Media Winners were Janelle McClure, Cristina Dover, and Shawn Hinger.
