Could You Be The Next Famous Filmmaker From Georgia?

If you were a filmmaker and trying to capture Georgia, what would that look like? They say the only terrain Georgia doesn’t possess is desert – that’s why filmmakers come here from all over the world to shoot. In Georgia, we have it all: majestic mountains and golden seashores; rolling rivers and gamey swamps, urban squall and suburban sprawl, small towns and bustling cities. If you’re trying to “capture” Georgia, you might have a hard task ahead of you, but here’s your chance, and it could put a jingle in your pocket – up to $3,500 dollars in cash and prizes! All you have to do is grab a camera and document your favorite thing to do or place to go in Georgia. Get creative! And get going … this fun-filled video contest closes on July 31.

And mark your calendar now for a better-than Hollywood movie screening at The Fox Theatre Atlanta on August 29, 2013 where you can watch the winning "Homegrown with a Twist" video contest entries on the big screen, and enjoy a special screening of the Georgia-filmed movie "Zombieland."

Enter the video contest and book your VIP package by July 31, and buy tickets for the celebratory event by August 29.
