Wahoo! Another day here at Elepharts, another opportunity to have fun with movie making and win a cool trip. Yes, this time you can become the 'King Of Cannes' at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival thanks to a new contest launched by one of the best beers in the world - Stella Artois. What you do is submit a casting audition online using some wicked webcam and video techniques - and you could be starring in a short film in the festival - and walking the red carpet at your movie premiere party! No kidding!
Okay, so here are the details - starting today, you can submit a casting audition online at castingcall.stellaartois.com - and then share it with family and friends online - and then on April 1, two hundred finalists will be selected worldwide from both online voting results (top 100 favorite submissions) and a distinguished panel of judges (100 finalists based on creativity and acting skills). The star of the film will be chosen by the judging panel from this short list. BTW would-be leading ladies need not miss out on the fun -- the online casting call offers them the opportunity to audition for a starring role in this film about Jacques' life.
So what do you win exactly? Well, you'll play Jacques d'Azur, the legendary (and fictitious) 'King Of Cannes,' in a biographical film about his life. In addition to playing the leading role in the film, the lucky winner will also attend the prestigious Cannes Film Festival, to premiere their short film at an exclusive Stella Artois event.
"To celebrate our Cannes Film Festival sponsorship and the 'King of Cannes' Jacques d'Azur, we're offering one lucky fan the experience of a lifetime," said Alexander Lambrecht, Global Marketing Manager at Stella Artois. "Now Stella Artois fans around the world will have the chance to see their own creation online, and one fan will appear on the big screen at the home of the world's most prestigious film event, the 64th annual Cannes Film Festival. This truly is a once in a lifetime opportunity and we can't wait to meet our new leading man or leading lady."
In true movie star style, the Jacques d'Azur film will premiere at a Stella Artois event during the 2011 Cannes Film Festival, to be followed by a party at Chez Jacques' -- Stella Artois' luxurious, invitation-only lounge at the Carlton Hotel's exclusive beachfront in Cannes.
