Olympus Wants You to Pen Your Story…to Win a PEN

Are you creative? OK, that’s a stupid question. Do you want the chance for your creative to be shown at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center during the US Open National Championships? That’s a better question. Or at least one Olympus wants you to answer if you’re interested in winning its new PEN E-PL1 portable DSLR HD camera.

All you have to do is submit a video to the brand’s YouTube channel explaining what you creative vision is and how you want to bring it to life. If you need motivation, Webby-Award winner and executive producer of Indy Mogul Erik Beck, has created a video offering tips.

After the proposal submissions have been narrowed to 20 semi-finalists selected by the community via thumbs up “likes”, six of the best proposals will be selected by a panel of judges from Olympus, as well as the YouTube community. Those six individuals will receive the PEN, the funds and time to bring their proposals to life.

Once the six finalists have uploaded their final creations to YouTube, one Grand Prize winner will be selected based on a combination of popular vote and the panel of Olympus judges. The Grand Prize winner will receive an all-expense-paid trip for two to New York City to attend the Olympus-sponsored US Open National Championships on Olympus Day. The winner’s work will be displayed on the giant video board at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center before an audience of thousands.

So give your ego a workout and win this thing.
