The Details

To honor the fact that this month holds the only national "jokester" holiday and is the first full month of spring we've come up with a rather interesting contest.

The challenge is to create a tourism video to promote tourism to the island. This makes the island your main character in the video. Creativity will determine the ultimate winner of this contest. Make it funny, gruesome, dramatic, or just whatever you feel will sell the island in the most unique way possible.

Here are a few tips. This isn't your typical music video so be creative. Using music isn't a requirement (reference Enchirito's "Out of Context" videos to see what we mean) but will probably help the mood of your video. Use title cards in your video (reference Pinched Circulation's "Priceless Moment 1" video) to help in the promotion of island tourism. Imagine yourself viewing videos of islands to visit and imagine what would set your video apart from other island videos. Remember creativity is the most important thing in this contest.

Good Luck!
