                              The Tech Juggernaut is pleased to announce 
that our Positive Environment contest is now live. If you wish to enter, 
please read this entire post, then follow all instructions to continue.

                              To participate, first, tap on the link below 
to complete the entry form (one entry per-person). Once the form is complete 
and you receive the message that your response has been recorded, you can 
create and submit your project. The goal of the project is to tell us how 
you are using technology to foster learning, entertainment, creativity, and 
an overall positive environment during these challenging times. You may use 
Apple Clips, Apple Keynote, or Apple Pages, according to the below 
guidelines.

                              After you have completed your project, share 
it with TTJ according to the below options.

                              Participation Requirements:
                              To participate in this contest, you must be a 
United States citizen with a physical address in the USA. You must either be 
at least 18 years old, or have parental consent, or the permission of 
another legal guardian, to enter. You must also agree to have your project 
featured on our website, on YouTube, and possibly in other promotional 
materials. We will accept only one entry per-person.

                              Creating Your Project:
                              If you will be using Apple Clips, be sure your 
project length is between three and ten minutes, and that you own the 
rights, or have obtained proper permission, to use any and all media in the 
video project. Feel free to include photos, videos, spoken narration, music, 
Live Titles, and anything else you desire. When finished, export the project 
as specified below.

                              If using Keynote, create your Keynote 
presentation, including recorded audio, and specify the desired time for 
each build, and the desired slide duration. Then export the project as a 
movie, according to the guidelines below. Be sure the Keynote presentation, 
and the resulting movie, adheres to the same requirements specified above 
(between three and ten minutes etc).

                              If using Pages, create an interactive digital 
book, complete with text, photos or shapes, and other media as you see fit, 
such as recorded audio, music, image galleries, and more. Export the 
document to the EPUB format, and again be sure you own all rights to all 
content. Length of the document can be between one and five typed pages, and 
no video included in the document may exceed ten minutes. The total time of 
included videos may also not exceed ten minutes.

                              Sharing Your Project:
                              When you share your project, be sure you are 
sharing a final result file, not a project file. For example, if you used 
Clips or Keynote, be sure you are sharing an MP4 or similar video format - 
not the project file that can be edited. As stated, Pages documents should 
be shared as EPUB files - not Pages documents. You may share your work in 
one of several ways:

                              First, you may send us an iCloud link to the 
final file. Do not send us the file directly. Instead, use the "Add People" 
option that appears in the Share menu of the Files app. Also, do not share 
an entire folder with us, just the specific file. Again, do this by locating 
your video or EPUB file in the Files app, long-pressing the file, choosing 
Share, then choosing "Add People".

                              Your second option is to share your video on 
YouTube. Upload the video to YouTube, then provide TTJ with the YouTube 
video link.

                              Finally, you may also supply us with a Dropbox 
link to the file you are attempting to share.

                              Once again, no file should ever be sent 
directly to TTJ. You should only ever send links. TTJ will delete any files 
we receive directly for security reasons, so please do not send files. Send 
all links (iCloud, YouTube, or Dropbox), to thetechjuggernaut at icloud.com, 
using the Messages app or the Mail app. Be sure to include your first and 
last name and indicate what you are sending, such as saying, "I have entered 
your contest, and here is my video". Links sent without a name matching an 
entry form and a short description will be ignored for security reasons. For 
fastest results, use the Messages app, and contact us ahead of time to let 
us know you are ready to send your project link.

                              Should you have any questions, please Contact 
TTJ.
