Any budding film makers in our midst? If so, you need to know about the Jameson Gone in 60 Seconds competition! And what can you win, I hear you ask? A trip to LA for a Hollywood soirée in the finals. Not half bad. Full details are below…

Jameson and Empire are challenging all super-talented film fans and director-hopefuls-of-the-future to recreate an iconic movie in no more than a minute. (That’s just enough seconds to save the world, get the girl/boy and live happily ever after!).

To take part in this year’s JAMESON DONE IN 60 SECONDS competition and be in with a chance of winning an Empire Award and attending the star-studded Jameson Empire Awards in March 2016,  simply choose a movie and distil it down to 60 seconds of cinematic essentials, just like putting all the best bits in a movie trailer. Then grab some mates, blag a camera (or smartphone) and upload your one minute masterpiece to www.jamesonempirediss.com before January 14th 2016.

One Irish entry will be chosen by an expert panel of judges including six time Oscar nominated director Jim Sheridan, actor and author Eoin Macken, who just finished filming the Hollywood blockbuster Resident Evil – The Final Chapter along with actor Kevin Ryan, who stars in the new ABC series Guilt which is due for release in 2016, to represent Ireland at the Global JAMESON DONE IN 60 SECONDS final in London.

Last year’s JAMESON DONE IN 60 SECONDS winner Oliver Jones impressed the judges with his hilariously low-fi take on Ghostbusters, he collected his award live on stage at the Jameson Empire Awards.
