Creative Commons' UK film competition "Mix & Mash" in
association
with Google UK invites short video submissions mixing and mashing
digital content. Submissions can be made from the 8th of February to
the 10th of March. The winners will be notified by the 12th of March

Remixing digital content is the basis for this competition. Digital
pictures, sound or films licensed through Creative Commons and Public

remix the work of others with their own. The result will be a collage
of original and re-used material.
