Dear greenlightcontestclub Members,
Hey everyone, just
heard about this site called filmaka.com. The winner of the whole thing
will get a feature film deal, and some of the guys behind it are people like
Paul Schrader, Neil LaBute, and John Madden. I don't know how long they're
running the contest for, but I'm submitting for the first contest.

Here are some more details
From the producers and financers of 'Bend it Like Beckham,' 'Buena Vista
Social Club,' 'Kill Bill 2,' and 'Hero,' comes the Filmaka.com
<http://filmaka.com/> contest! Filmaka.com <http://filmaka.com/> is a new
contest site where filmmakers get to submit their short films for viewing,
voting, and selection. The winner of the contest receives a feature film
deal with the some of the world's best known independent producers at
Filmaka.com <http://filmaka.com/> .
You may begin uploading your films on December 15th - but you can log on now
to find out the theme of the contest. All are invited to submit their short
films based on the contest theme - no longer than 3 minutes - at the Entry
Level. The top 15 filmmakers from the Entry Level will win $500 and a
chance to move to the Jury Level where you get $1000 to make a new short.
The Jury Level films will be viewed and voted on by an industry panel
including actors Colin Firth & Bill Pullman and directors Neil LaBute, John
Madden, and Paul Schrader. First place at the Jury Level wins $3500 and
second place wins $1500. Both move up to the Finals Level, where you're in
the running to win a feature film deal!
This is the only contest that presents an opportunity to filmmakers by
filmmakers. You may upload your films beginning December 15th until
December 23rd. Log onto www.filmaka.com <http://www.filmaka.com/> for
