NEW YORK, NY, Oct 29 (MARKET WIRE) --
Online broadband network Zoom In Online is hosting a contest giving video
editors a chance to win thousands of dollars in production gear. Grass
Valley, in association with Magnet Media, presents "Cut and Win," a
contest in which entrants submit a 60-second or less commercial spot
promoting Grass Valley's nonlinear editing program, EDIUS.
The style and message of the commercial is open to interpretation; the
only requirement is that the video is a promotion for EDIUS software, and
the commercial uses HUMOR to convey its message. Submissions will be
judged on the basis of CREATIVITY and AESTHETICS with humorous entries
weighted more heavily for winning consideration. Contestants are
otherwise encouraged to take creative license and produce a commercial
that touts the software in an entertaining fashion. Entries will be
accepted until DECEMBER 9, 2009.
The Grand Prize winner will receive a full production and post-production
kit including:
* HP ProBook Laptop Loaded with EDIUS Nonlinear Editing Software
* Panasonic HDC-HS250K Video Camera
* LaCie d2 Quadra External Drive (1 TB)
