This news of online prizes comes to us from Carol Patton of Imagine:
After a wildly successful inaugural March competition, OurStage announced today that it’s upping the stakes. OurStage lets music and film artists enter their work in its monthly competitions. The site then empowers its growing fan community to view and judge entries in a compelling, addictive way that cannot be gamed, skewed or rigged. Final video and music winners are selected among the top ten within each music and film channel, based on highest number of text-votes. For the April competition, underway now, the top overall text-vote getter on the Music channel, and the top overall text-vote getter on the Film/Video Channel will each win $5,000 cash. The April competition is now accepting submissions. We hope you will enter your film or video now and encourage others to do so. All high-ranking work gets recognized and publicized by our fans, industry trailblazers and partners like Gen Art, Slamdance, Shooting People, Filmmaker’s Collaborative, NYC Midnight, and more. Act now… there’s nothing to loose but obscurity. Visit
