Enter the Fuel the Change Video Competition, and help make the world a greener place. Win up to $10,000, as well as the chance of possibly seeing your video aired during the Indianapolis 500!

Sample frame from the Fuel the Change video toolbox

Here are the basics:

You must be at least 14 years of age and live in the United States
You're creating a potential TV commercial, so make it 27 seconds
Make it positive, capture people's imaginations
Be original, don't plagiarize someone else's work (although we've given you some starter material in the Video Toolbox if you need it)
Use the help that you'll find on this site and at www.drivingethanol.org
Submit your video and if it's judged vote-worthy, then rally the team to vote for you
Ratings made by people visiting the site and viewing your submission count significantly (40%) towards the Grand Prize Award, and there's also a People's Choice Award ($5,000) for the best rated video.

They have some fun examples of what you can do as well as a toolbox of parts that you can use in your own video. Go green, and help change the way people look at the world.
