Vote For Your Favorite Documentary

The 150 winning entries in C-SPAN's 2015 StudentCam competition are currently in the process of being finalized but, as a preview, we are sharing five of the best videos received in this year's competition (as determined by C-SPAN's judges). We are asking you to view each of these five videos and cast your vote for your favorite documentary. Vote for your favorite video as often as you like between Monday, February 23 and Friday, February 27.


Your vote will not determine the Grand Prize winning entry, but the documentary that receives the most number of votes will receive a secondary cash prize of $500 and will be recognized as the 2015 "Fan Favorite".


Please note that the 150 main StudentCam prizes awarded by C-SPAN judges will be decided independently of your vote.


To view the complete list of 150 winning documentaries, as well as the winner of this year's "Fan Favorite" award, log-on to www.studentcam.org on Wednesday, March 4 at 9am ET.
