Gen I Revolution Contest (225 points)

Here's a unique opportunity for not only points, but something that could go on you resume as an aspiring adult. The makers of Gen I Revolution (The Council for Economic Education) are accepting submissions to create a sixteenth 'mission' on their impressive website. The submission will include a written application and a 60-second video, and must be completed by April 18th. This is no small task, and it has prizes for the winners! (gift cards and cash to the classroom)
Interested? 225 points would go a long way, and y'all can team up as groups of 4! Everybody can submit, although I do ask that the entries be slightly different from each other if that happens. Furthermore, if the entry is considered in some fashion (or actually wins!) then a bonus of 110 points will be added.
An overview of the contest can be seen here.
Please be sure to read all of the page describing the contest, and then read the written submission example and watch the sample video. I'll be involved in every team's submission, helping with details and planning. This task will go a long way towards receiving an 'A' this semester, and with some solid teamwork, it should go fairly smoothly. There should be no need to work outside of the classroom on this one. We have a lot of classes between now and April 18th.
