An October contest for Filmmakers to make $10,000. Use this prize to make your next Movie!

A link via the West Virginia Film Office tells of a contest put on by Verisign and ".TV" to help Filmmakers win $10,000 by constructing a winning 30- 60 second commercial expressing to the world the benefits and pleasures of using a ".TV" web domain extension for their videos and playable content. A ".TV" has been a option to filmmakers for quite some time, and they are looking for help with promoting the online video experience. By using ".TV " an audience immediately knows that they are about to engage in video and the like- essentially pushing forward the video revolution into the future - and I know media artist of all kinds can get behind this noble agenda. So get out your cameras and break out the pen and paper, and get moving the deadline announced is October 23, 2011. Not much time- but the benefits of a job well done and chance at being hand picked could just finance your next picture. And we all know how hard financing is to come by for art these days.
