I mentioned in another thread that I wanted 2008 to become the year of activty and culture for Jamzinia, so whilst the year is young I've been brainstorming. I've came up with the idea of the Jamzinian Film Festival. The event will be held in the form of a competition for Jamzinians. Citizens will be able to submit videos that they have made that are relevant to a particular chosen theme. The theme will change each year, though every theme must relate back to Jamzinia in some way. Citizens make their videos, host them on youtube, then a pannel of judges (or alternatively a public vote?) will decide upon the winner, who's work will then be awarded the prestigious title of Jamzinian Film Festival Winner 2008. To give you an example, say the theme was "Friendship", this would mean that citizens who wanted to enter would create their video, relating to Jamzinian friendship, host it using youtube and then submit it. Something like this maybe - uk.youtube.com/watch?v=G4RqlmPwX-II hope the film festival will provide an area for citizens to actively participate, within the entertainments industry, whilst at the same time, contributing to our culture.

You could do it so there are several categories. Like documentary, feature film, drama, comedy. That sorta thing.

It's an interesting idea, although I don't think we'd have enough entries to have so many different categories. It may be best just to have one, at least then we should have a few to choose from.

Something involving marching. Military parades.
Plenty of stock footage to work with.
I also have the perfect song.

I'd struggle for ideas with that. I don't think I can name one Jamzinian march or parade. Are there any?

I hope it doesn't go along the same lines of the Chinese one in command and conquer generals, as they're doing the parade terrorists steal a nuke truck and kill everyone...
too many parades and amrching makes us look militaristic like china or woodstania
