bReel Competition

bstreetsmart invites students attending this year’s live event in August to a create fun road safety video using the concept of an Instagram Reel. Competition objectives and themes are provided below along with the marking criteria and a permission slip.

Students can download an app such as CapCut or InShot to their phones (or use their favourite editing app) to produce their bReels. The files can then be sent to their teacher as a MOV or MP4 file. If the files are too large to email, you can use content management software to share the files, such as Dropbox or Google Drive which enables teachers to send out a link to students so that they can upload the files directly. Teachers can then upload the videos to bstreetsmart through the school’s portal on our website bstreetsmart.org/portal. Please ensure that the video file is named correctly with the title of the video, the students first names and the school’s name.

Successful applicants will have their bReel uploaded to bstreetsmart’s social media platforms including Instagram and Facebook. They will also be shown on the big screen during the live event in August.

Please note videos that exceed 60 seconds, or are not original, or have inappropriate content, or do not align with bstreetsmart road safety message, or does not contain one of the road safety themes specified, will be disqualified from the competition. The closure date for entry is 5:00pm, 30th June 2025. Entries received after this date will not be considered.

The cash prizes will be sponsored by icare, $2000 will be awarded to the winning school along with a trophy to be presented at the live event in August. The kids involved in producing the winning video will each receive a $50 gift card.

2nd place will receive $1000, and 3rd place will receive a $500 cash prize that will be awarded to the school.
