Hey I,Yeah I'd love to do it, but the problem is (which seems redundant) that to enter, you need to use ONLY their software and the grand prize is THEIR SOFTWARE.... so what I'm reading is I need to buy their software only to win it back..... mmmmm...But I am still gonna put music to their vid just for practice and for my portfolio - you never know THE FORCE IS STRONG WITH YOU I-468 - YOU CAN DO IT!!!Take CareB

The video is really good, it's worth downloading anyway. It's not often that you get a piece of video with no music so I recommend getting it even if you're not going to enter.I don't think I'm going to have time to do it but it still looks like fun!Mazz

Hey Mazz,Yeah that's what I'm gonna do, as I want to experiment more with film scoring etc and I think this is an awesome opportunity (even though I'm not entering the comp)... It's still practice...

Yeah, it would be good to download and work with just for the heck of it. My producer buddy does real projects like that for $$$$, where he gets video from an established company, and is asked to write music for it. I saw him do one practically from scratch for the state lottery. The clients loved it. Still comes on TV every now & then. That's been about 2 years ago now.
