Use of license-protected sources without license will be rejected (e.g. don’t sample popular music tracks). TikTok video entries must be a minimum of 60 seconds for consideration and uploaded as a YouTube link.

Deadline for all submissions is January 15, 2021.​ After the deadline,​ ​videos will be reviewed by a panel of judges for originality and demonstration of the mission and values of the FLT.
