On the Radar
Music video champions Radar recently ran a competition for filmmakers to submit music videos for various well known bands and artists. One of the bands was The Maps, and winner Joe Brener made a promo for their track ‘To The Sky’. Joe’s prize was £1,000 cold hard cash, mentoring from Draw Pictures, a space on the YouTube global front page, and...he’s just got married. You can’t win them all!
The winners from the Radar and Coke Music competition have also been making waves.
Radar collaborated with Coke Music to create videos for their four top rated bands, inviting film-makers to pitch for the honour of having their creative associated with one of the foursome from the fizzy drink’s new music site. The winning videos can be viewed here.

AICP Show second entry deadline
Over the Atlantic, the second entry deadline for the 2008 AICP Show, The Art & Technique of the American Commercial is February 29th, 2008, for work airing February 4, 2008 – February 24, 2008. This is the first time since the Show's inception in 1992 that there has been a second eligibility period.
The structure was introduced this year to allow work created for, and airing, during the Oscars telecast to be considered for the 2008 Show. Work can be entered at www.aicp.com.
The Association of Independent Commercial Producers Show is on June 3rd at The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City. Robert Fernandez, CEO/Partner at Moxie Pictures, is the Show Chairman. Honoured work becomes a part of the permanent archive of the Department of Film at MoMA, which is good but not as good as being featured on The Reel, folks!
