Video contest hopes to inspire less driving

The folks behind the regional Drive Less Save More campaign are seeking submissions for the first-ever Drive Less Video Challenge.

The objective is to create a 25 second video that motivates people to drive less. The winning video will run as a TV commercial and will get a new Apple iMac and Final Cut video software. Anyone from Oregon or SW Washington can submit to one of two categories.

Here’s more from their website:

“The opportunities are endless. You could spotlight your own money-saving tips, poke fun at excessive driving or feature any number of travel options (transit, biking, walking, carpooling, telecommuting, etc.) – so long as your video motivates people to reduce car trips. All videos must incorporate the “Drive Less Save More” message (the more creative the better!).”

The deadline for video submissions is 5 p.m. on January 30, 2009.
