 * You and your friends have been out in California for over a year now, trying to make it big but no one has taken a second glance at you. Then you see a flyer for a contest. World famous producers and directors from MGM such as Mel Brooks (//Robin Hood: Men in Tights)//, Marc Forster (//Valkyrie)//, and Callum McDougall (//Quantum of Solace)// have put out a call, "Impress us with a modern retelling of Tess of the d'Urbervilles." They want to hear the story from another point of view other than Tess's and to see the different conflicts from that person's point of view. But, to make sure it is still recognizable as //Tess of the d'Urbervilles,// they want to keep the original themes in the story line. You and your production team are competing against a multitude of people, famous and no names alike, so make sure that your clip or trailer is unique so you stand out from the crowd! ||
