May 13, 2008 - Duanesburg High School students enrolled in the media production class taught by Jeffrey Rivenburg recently submitted a video to participate in Time Warner Cable’s “How Cool is Your School?” video production contest.

The competition encourages and challenges local students to use their creativity to promote their school’s unique spirit while also developing their video production skills. Each video entry will be judged on its relevance, effectiveness, production technique, creativity and marketing. Judging will take place in May by a panel of judges and also through a Web-based voting system.

Community members can watch the video on Capital News 9 On Demand, digital cable channel 1009, and then visit coolschool.twalbany.com from May 8-21 to cast their votes on the best video.

The winning students will be featured in a Capital News 9 story and will receive a $1,000 gift card to use to purchase new video/editing equipment for their school. The winning team will also receive a tour of CNN’s New York City studio.
