Universal Music and progressive, classical music act Era were in search of an aspiring filmmaker to come up with a “treatment” for a music video to be premiered at a central London cinema, aired on MTV and Vh1, as well as through Era’s online networks. The selected filmmaker would receive up to $10,000 of filmmaking equipment and the honor of working with the world’s largest record company. Additionally, $5000 is being distributed between the rest of the filmmakers who submitted.
After a successful voting period and deliberation by Era and Universal Music, the chosen winner of this filmmaker search is Adrian Picardi. Check out his mind-blowing submission below:
Adrian graduated from the Los Angeles Film School at the age of 19. His first student film, ‘His Day to Remember,’ won the Cinematic Flim2Music competition and was also screed at Sundance that same year!
He is best known for securing a spot as one of the young, up and coming filmmakers the industry has seen and for winning a series of online short film contests, now including this one! Adrian works with extremely low budgets but his films are always commercially appealing and visually stunning!
We featured Adrian on our website a while back and could not be more proud of him! Congratulations, Adrian and thank you to all of the filmmakers for your hard work! It does not go unnoticed!
We have teamed up with Universal Music and MediaCom London to create a invite to find a talented amateur music video director. The invite offers filmmakers a once in a life time opportunity to create and direct a music video for a new progressive classical act, Era.
The winner will receive $10,000 in video equipment, be part of the global release and have the opportunity to meet with Eric Levi, the judge of the final entries and also the man behind Era.
All you have to do is create a video to the song “Ameno” (you can download it when you login and click participate.) The concept of your video can draw influence from fantasy literature and movies, with epic imagery to match the mood of this new age masterpiece. Characters created within the initial video will also be used elsewhere in the campaign as it unfolds through 2010.
Don’t miss out on this once in a lifetime opportunity.
