Welcome to the announcement of IvyPanda’s Annual Video Contest Scholarship winners!
We know you’re eager to find out who took home the prizes, so let’s dive right in. But first, a quick look at this year’s numbers.
This year, we were blown away by the response, receiving 112 video submissions with 74 making it through to evaluation. Sadly, 38 entries didn’t meet the mark due to issues like copyright issues, low production quality, missing IvyPanda’s logo, etc. For the second round of evaluation, we’ve picked 54 submissions.
A huge thank you goes out to everyone who participated! Your creativity and visual storytelling truly brought this competition to life.
Let’s quickly revisit how we assessed each video:
- Content Usefulness
- Engagement
- Creativity
- Production
The community engagement this year was phenomenal. Videos collectively received 2650 likes and racked up 14,110 views, with viewers spending a combined 193.8 hours! Now, without further ado, here are this year’s winners!
Taking 1st place and the $1,000 scholarship is Yini Zheng with the video “Let AI Assist You, Not Replace You,” scoring an outstanding 648 likes, 30 comments, and 2100 views. Congratulations!
