Call to Arms - Summer Cup Movie Contest
Back to top Back to main Skip to menuThis summer, we prepared an Urban Zone Summer Cup movie contest!
If you decide to join, you need to make a movie from Urban Zone summer cup matches. We don't care what your experience is - whether this will be your first movie or your 20th, we are interested in giving you a shot at winning and maybe getting your video featured via our media.
Continue reading to find out what we want and what you can get.
Our goal is to give exposure to filmmakers in the community - boost the ones that already produce movies as well as help those who are new to it. We have opened up a forum section for you to ask questions, help others, tell us about your progress, and hand in your submissions if you want to submit them publicly.
We will promote selected videos in the weeks they are submitted on our Facebook and Youtube pages, and during our special event broadcasts at Twitch. We even offer an award of 25 Euro to the winner, but - more importantly - the winner's video will be used to promote our next Summer Cup and possibly our other competitions. We cannot give you much money - but we can offer you fame and glory

- Start: You can start immediately.
- Deadline: September 1st
- Results: We promise to have the results available as soon as humanly possible after the deadline, but not later than within 2 weeks.
