Do you want to win $100,000?
Nikon is sponsoring a short (140 seconds or less) film festival titled “Your Day in 140 Seconds or Less” with a $100,000 grand prize and a $25,000 “audience choice” award.

The constest is open to anyone with any camera (though I strongly suggest you read the complete rules before you submit – they own it!) and you can enter up to 5 times. I haven’t been able to find any info about entry fees but you do need to register with the site before uploading.
Here is a breif description from their web site.
So what’s it like to be you? Capture the essence of your day in a video of 140 seconds or less. It can be funny, touching or profound. It can be about everything you did, everything you didn’t do, the day’s biggest dilemma or its most telling detail.
Upload your video here and instantly share it with your social media networks rather than sending the same old updates. How? When you upload your video you can automatically share your video with your Twitter followers and place it on your Facebook feed, so your friends can also view your day and vote on your video.
Although you’re not required to use a specific camera, your video will be judged on image quality, originality and the ability to capture a day through your lens in 140 seconds. So get as creative as you want to be when capturing your day.
