			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you’ve ever been to a film fest you’ve probably seen a short little video bumper promoting the festival that run before the screening starts.  They’re always very unique and fun.  Well the <a href="http://www.filmlinc.com/">New York Film Festival</a> needed a promo bumper for this year’s festival so they put out an open call for submissions on <a href="http://www.poptent.net/">poptent</a>.  This call was kind of unusual for the site since the fest is non-profit and there would be no cash award.  However, the fest did give out a “super” VIP package and the selected festival trailer will be shown throughout the New York Film Festival and will then be shown in theaters year round before other screenings.</p>
<p>That right there is actually a pretty sweet prize.  Getting a film into the NY festival would be great for anyone’s filmmography but to have the festival as a client and to have your work screen in theaters and in Lincoln Center(!) would be a really nice resume builder.  Here’s the video that was chose by The New York Film Festival:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="512" height="288" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.poptent.net/getplayer/14376" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="512" height="288" src="http://www.poptent.net/getplayer/14376" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>That’s really slick.  I like it.  If you want to see something crazy though, check out this video that was one of the finalists:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="512" height="288" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.poptent.net/getplayer/14367" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="512" height="288" src="http://www.poptent.net/getplayer/14367" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>That video was created by three US Marines while serving in Afghanistan!  More details about the guys who made it can be found <a href="http://www.poptent.net/media/14367">here</a>.
