Poetic Justice: Impress The Band, Join Them In Australia on Jan. 1, 2012
Monday 14 November 2011
Dance superstars
Justice
have laid down a challenge to YouTube: produce a mind-blowing video cover of one the tracks from "Audio, Video, Disco" and win the opportunity to treat yourself and a friend to a similarly mind-blowing New Year's Day at the band's January 1, 2012, concert in Sydney, Australia.
Given that the French duo have a reputation for producing innovative, quirky videos, it's time to get creative: think
"D.A.N.C.E"
or the epic
"Civilisation"
(although, naturally, your production can be on a smaller scale). The creators of the top nine entries as decided by Gaspard and Xavier will join them in an exclusive Google+ Hangout at the
Justice +Page
to review the entries, at which point the winner will be announced.
Submissions should be made at the
Justice YouTube channel
and don't forget to share your efforts using Google+ and boost your profile by interacting with
the band's +page
, as comments will be linked directly back to their
home on YouTube
and will doubtless boost your chances. The competition closes at 3pm, Paris time, on December 10, so get filming if you want to start 2012 with a bang… and more than a few beats.
