November 13th, 2008Howdy Folks,
We're teaming up with the band Justice to promote a new video contest - HOW WERE YOU GREAT IN 2008?
Drawing from this past year, they want to see what you did that was GREAT. Whether you were filming, recording, playing, listening, drawing, snapping photos, writing, traveling, touring, blogging, promoting something you love, voting, or just being good at being you?
Get more info - www.vimeo.com/justiceforall or www.industreate.com/contest
To enter, videos must be between 30 seconds and 3 minutes and must be tagged with 'jst4all' AND from the blog/site that referred you to the contest - if you weren't referred, just pick a blog that you like from the OFFICIAL LIST HERE. Videos will be automatically added to the contest channel from the tags.
There are over $6000.00 in prizes which include a trip to hang out with 2008's Grammy nominated electronic duo, Justice & Ed Banger mate and art director, So Me on New Year's Eve in Chicago, at Revolution Number 9, as well as limited edition custom merch and a whole lot of street cred.
Submissions will be accepted till the end of November and the finalists will be determined by the video that receives the most likes.

The links for "more info" aren't working right now. For me at least. Thought I would give a heads up.
is this a US only contest?
United States, you cannot win the trip, in lieu, you receive $1000.00 USD"
let´s see what hapens after.
why so tight?
i what in so bad, just can't with that deadline.
great for vimeo though. and of course all who enter.
"4) Get your submissions in by the end of NOVEMBER, and get your friends and fans to vote on your clip at vimeo.com/justiceforall
5) The 5 clips with the most votes then go before our esteemed panel of Judges who will select the winner. The blog/site/person that send the most referrals also wins the big prize"
This appears to me to be more of a popularity contest than anything. That certainly diminishes my interest. However, I'm glad for Vimeo, and I hope that this endeavor is a smashing success.
We feel the blogs/sites/people helping to spread the word also deserve some credit for making some great finds.
We're just looking to showcase greatness in 2008, please don't be discouraged!

Anyway, best of luck to all!
but, that's the rule, so...

Well it's worth a shot...
I could say a lot about that...
Can totally unqualified, negative comments be deleted from here? See above......WTF? This is not the place for comments like that - You Tube(cough ..spit!) allows junk like that to roam free....this is not the place for it.
Okay, so I'm real excited for this contest. Vimeo has given me such inspiration all week - and now this! I'm just afraid I won't be able to get in a bunch of likes though. It'll still be fun.
Man that's sick, can't wait to see what happens.
hahahahah
thats great
nominate it
justice for the win.
Sincerely emily
"Entrants agree that when they enter into the contest, they assign and transfer usage of their submission to Industreate including all rights, title and interest in and to their video and design."
This appears to be outrageous. If I'm reading it right, ownership of your video is transferred to Industreate , which doesn't seem to be very just!
Canceling preparations for my entry...
I have a dumb question (which I'll ask)... would it behoove us to set the video to a Justice track? Is that a given?
What's the final deadline, 30th at 23:59 eastern time? or pacific - cause that would give me 3 extra hours. Also, how come there are already FINALISTS on the page, all videos haven't arrived yet. What about the music, we can use only music we make? I see in the finalists that is not the case.
Thank you in advance
Cheers
