Are you a filmmaker? Do you appreciate what it takes to make commercials? Here's a cause to get behind for companies, filmmakers and visionaries.

MOFILM

Imagine a company well positioned and connected to major consumer brands. Imagine you creating video and film to reach them. Think you got what it takes?

MOFILM, a private company with some big name backers, wants to make you famous. But before you can be the next great Jon Laundau, you have to prove it - through a flim making contest.

MOFILM's idea is simple. Take hungry creative film making talent and get them competing against one another in video contests. Execute a business model showcasing their talents and offering it to clients who seek something fresh, and inspiring. Its a win-win for everyone who has a love affair and passion for creating visions on film.

MOFILM and Chevy: The Chevy Runs Deep Campaign

In 1911, Louis Chevrolet and William Durant founded the Chevrolet brand. Years later, General Motors would acquire the company and use it to pit against Henry Ford's Model T line. Throughout history, Chevy has been a mainstay brand for American auto making. Here we are, 100 years later and the brand continues to survive.

To celebrate the centennial anniversary, Chevrolet held a short film contest with MOFILM asking film makers to produce a 55 second spot under the Chevy Runs Deep theme. These were some of the submitted entries I found on YouTube that I thought were pretty darn good.

Watch them all. See if the message well connected with you and the theme. And above all, appreciate the work put into them.
