NSPA INTRODUCES MULTIMEDIA STORY OF THE YEAR CONTEST

Contact: contests@studentpress.org

The National Scholastic Press Association is pleased to announce a new Individual Awards contest this year: Multimedia Story of the Year. This contest’s categories include News, Feature and Sports. All NSPA member print and online publications qualify for entry.

In previous years NSPA had a single multimedia category within the print Story of the Year contest. After seeing a dramatic increase in multimedia submissions over the past two years NSPA created a separate contest in order to better recognize excellent student work in multimedia reporting.

Entries to the Multimedia Story of the Year contest may be submitted online. There is a limit of two entries per category for each member publication. The contest deadline is Friday, June 15, 2012, and the finalists will be announced in September 2012.
