Gen Art and Fox Searchlight ran a short film contest for young filmmakers and designers...
The competition was to create four short films tied in to Wes Anderson's stop-animated FANTASTIC MR. FOX. Each video should demonstrate how to make your own Halloween costume based on one of the characters from the movie. MR. FOX is based on the popular children's book by Roald Dahl.The filmmakers and designers each received cash stipends for the costumes and videos, and one lucky team will win a bonus cash prize of $1000.
Fantastic Mr. Fox hits theaters this November. Visit the official website for the trailer and more www.fantasticmrfoxmovie.com
