C-SPAN would like to thank all of the students and teachers who participated in the 2014 StudentCam documentary competition, and congratulate the winning documentarians, whose videos competed among the record-setting 2,355 films that were received this year. Almost 5,000 students representing 46 states, as well as Washington DC, Taiwan, and the United Arab Emirates took part in the competition.

C-SPAN has awarded 150 documentaries with prizes totaling $100,000. Prize winning filmmakers and teachers will be contacted via email with more information regarding their win.

C-SPAN will air each of the second prize through grand prize winning documentaries at 6:50am ET, Monday through Friday, during the month of April on our television network.

We hope you enjoy this year's selection of winning entries as much as we enjoyed judging them. Once again, a heartfelt thanks to all participants for making this our best competition ever!

If you have any questions, please email us at educate@c-span.org.
