Film Your Issue, Win an Internship
"We want to know what young people think," say the sponsors of Film Your Issue's 2007 film competition. Young filmmakers (ages 16 through 25) have until April 15 to shoot and edit a short film on a contemporary issue of their choice and upload it to a microsite hosted by Yahoo!'s video editing software subsidiary, Jumpcut. Not only will the finalist films be shown on the FYI Web site, but they may be screened at the United Nations and broadcast on Starz. Winners may also receive a summer internship with Universal Pictures, another sponsor.
