You give the judges a copy of your video, so they can watch it after your presentation, and they already have a copy of your essay, so this is the time you should be 100% original. On our team, we always have a themed presentation, with props and/or costumes to match. Generally, for us, this is our theme for the entire year, so all of our actions and activities match that year's theme. The important thing you want to do, is to give the judges a sense of who your team is, what is important to your team, and what things you do that you believe are a role model for other teams. Your presentation can be anything you want, you could do a skit, you could give them some object and then tell a story around that object, you could put something together in front of the judges, as you tell your story, (I saw one group pretend to mix a cake, with the ingredients of the cake being parts of their team - they were even dressed as bakers! - and at the end gave the judges a cupcake with their team number on it), etc...
Generally, your presentation should do the following:
1. Who you are
2. What you did this year
3. How are you a role model for others
4. Make an impression on the judges
5. Watch the time
6. Have fun!
