Film Your Own Elf Porn, Win Big Prizes
In-game matchmaking software company Xfire is teaming up with Blizzard in a promotional contest for the best World of Warcraft machinima. Grand prize is $23k, which is approximately a 127-year WoW subscription.
The objective of the contest is to select the best fan-made movies using World of Warcraft characters and locations - an increasingly popular area of amateur film-making known as machinima.Contestants are invited to submit entries in four categories - short film, comedy, drama/action and dance/music video - with the criterion being that they must all be cut together from footage recorded in World of Warcraft.
The deadline is September 15th, so get cracking. There are also a butt-ton of runner-up prizes, so even if your sweeping epic about the shocking sexual exploitation of the Orgrimmar Orphanage doesn't top the list in the Music Video category, you still have a whack at some nice plunder.
