Recreate your favourite movie and win at the Jameson Empire Awards 2009!
Consider yourself a budding director? Think you can out-think the greats? Prepared to use nowt but ingenuity, your mobile phone or a DV camera? Ready to remake, any film of your choice in one minute? If the answer is yes to all of these questions, then you could win a trophy at this year's Jameson Empire Awards to be held in London. Think of it, mixing it up with the great and the good of the film biz.What you need to doLast year we asked you guys to try your hand at film making, and boy did you respond! The challenge was really simple, - remake any film in no more than one minute. We were festooned with entries ranging from the inspired, to the madcap, to the slightly scary! So now, with an Award in the offing again, it's time for Done in 60 Seconds: The Revenge!
So for all of you budding Scorseses out there, the rules remain basically the same: your movie must be a 60 second remake of a feature film and not involve any copyright infringement, ie music, product placement (unless it's a bottle of Jameson!) or nudity (thank you!). The only other stipulation we have this year, as 2009 marks Empire's 20th year, is that the film you choose was made during Empire's lifetime (ie, since 1989).
Do * Remake a movie of your choice from 1989 onwards (no originality please)
* Use your friends and family (make sure your cast have agreed to perform)
* As many as you want (it's your time)
* Feel free to 'adapt' the film to fit the format (you don't have to be completely faithful)
Don't * Go over one minute in length, you’ll be disqualified
* Slander anyone (we’re averse to court cases)
* Do pornography, we are trying to run a decent magazine here
* Use any footage that is not your own (no 'mashing' allowed)
What Happens If You Win?What Happens If You Win?
The best five will be shortlisted by a panel of experts (otherwise known as us) for Empire readers to vote a winner. They will pick up their award (accompanied by one guest of their choice) on the star-studded night. Films will be judged on their clarity (we should know which film it is), ingenuity (how you got round those tricky $20m special effects) and humour (come on, they can't be that sensible!).
