Warner Bros., RES magazine, and Jumpcut are running a contest allowing entrants to re-cut the trailer to "A Scanner Darkly." You can either download the trailer elements and edit them in your editor of choice, or you can edit the trailer directly in Jumpcut's best-of-breed online editing interface. While Jumpcut has a lot to offer, the contest is offering up uncompressed video clips as well as dialogue and music files, which would seem to favor the experienced editor who has access to their own NLE. Award-winners, as voted on by users at Jumpcut.com, can win prizes ranging from a movie poster to a video editing workstation valued at $8200. The contest deadline is June 7th, but the audience will start voting on your trailer as soon as you upload it--so get crackin'.[via CinemaTech]
1. Has anybody been able to download the source files? When I right click on them I just get the Flash settings.
