I just got this from Wildeye and thought I'd repost it here:

"Friends of the Earth green film competition in association with Filminute®

Make a film of exactly 60 seconds which explores how we look after our planet and use it like there is a tomorrow.

http://www.foe.co.uk/green_film/

You do not have to be a UK-resident to enter. The competition is open to anyone on the planet earth however some of the prizes are London based."

The closing date is 20th August 2007.

Grant, I got the same email from Wildeye.
I definitive think about joining this. Have to figure out something first?

To make a 60 sec film is not the easiest way of filmmaking. You need a very strict script and the edit process will be the most difficult part I think.

I've been pondering this one as well fellas.

I have to say the 'theme' is very oddly written

"Make a film of exactly 60 seconds which explores how we look after our planet and use it like there is a tomorrow."

Does this mean the things we do positively that are green ? I have to say I'm still a little confused about what its asking for ???
