Now you have the chance to make your own commercial for Spacing&#8217;s My Toronto video contest. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"style1\">Over the summer, put together your own 30-second commercial for Toronto. Use your camcorder, camera phone, or even a still camera. Edit it, animate it, set it to music, or give it a voice-over. Be creative. When you&#8217;re done, upload it to our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/group\/SpacingVideoContest\">YouTube group<\/a>. Famous places like the CN Tower are fine, but in making your commercial, you should think about the subtle stuff in your neighbourhood &#8212; from Malvern to Kensington to Long Branch &#8212; that makes Toronto unique. The commercials will be judged both by jury and by popular vote, and the best will be shown at a public event.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style1\">Please help us spread the word to any budding filmmaker or ultra-indie-producer you know of in any corner of the city and let them know about this contest. This includes your 12 year old cousin in Rexdale who pretends he&#8217;s the young Spielberg in the neighbourhood.<\/p>\n<p class=\"style1\"><strong><span class=\"style3\"><\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nClick <a href=\"http:\/\/spacing.ca\/mytoronto\/\">here<\/a> for specific video\/upload requirements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The deadline for the MyToronto video contest has been extended two weeks, until Friday September 21.
