Calling all Filmmakers

 
"We're trying to foster participation in a variety of art mediums, and thought a video contest would be a fun incentive to encourage people to give it a try if they've never produced a video. We hope many of our entrants will gain the experience necessary to put toward the Grand Cinema's 72-hour Film Competition later this year" said TAP founder Linda Danforth.

Video submissions are due by March 8, 2010 and a winner will be determined on March 22, 2010. The rules are simple- videos will be uploaded to www.youtube.com, and the video with the most number of hits by the end of the two-week viewing period will be declared the winner. For a more complete set of guidelines, please contact Jennifer McKinney, Tacoma Art Place Video Contest Coordinator.
 
Sponsored by Comcast, the contest winner will receive a $250 cash prize. The winning video will also be displayed on the Tacoma Art Place website, www.tacomaartplace.org, and on the Comcast website, http://comcastwashington.mediaroom.com.
