Are you Visibly Smart? Asus Competition

ASUS UK, alongside partner Intel, has announced the launch of the 'Visibly Smart' short video competition; a celebration of the creative strength in British filmmaking and a chance for talented teams to win a video commission from ASUS UK as well as their own N Series notebooks. 


The Visibly Smart video competition invites moving-image makers from across the UK to create a 2 minute piece of work that commends being Visibly Smart, reflects the ASUS global ethos (Inspiring Innovation, Persistent Perfection) and cleverly incorporates an innovative feature of the N Series range of notebooks. 

All entries will be uploaded onto the ASUS consumer portal (Here) from 20th June 2011 where the public will be invited to engage through comments and voting. 

Everyone that votes or comments on the videos will be entered into a prize draw to win an N Series laptop for themselves. The visionary team behind the winning video will each receive an N Series laptop (up to 4). What's more, the talented filmmakers will be profiled on ASUS' global website and commissioned to create a video for ASUS UK later in 2011/2012.
