Ford Sets Up Mustang Movie Contest
Ford is working with Filmaka.com to set up a contest to find a creative person who can create the best script that is themed around a Mustang. Unique filmmakers will be able to choose one out of eight Mustang storied and can create their very won tale and write a script about it.
The people with the top 20 scripts as chosen by Ford and Filmaka.com will get a budget of $5,000 to produce their film, along with contacts at local Mustang clubs for the use of vehicles to shoot. Those 20 winners will have two weeks to submit their finished work, and nine winners and an alternate will receive an additional $5,000 in prize money.
The top 10 will also get the chance to create a promo that will appear on network TV. The grand prize winner gets the opportunity to direct a film for promotional materials for the 2010 Mustang. The contest ends on August 26 (today!), and the top 20 winners will need to have their initial work completed by September 16.
