Vimeo - Staff Blog / Weekend Project: Capture the Fall


Hey Vimeans,
This weekend your challenge is to get busy with your phone. If you’ll kindly take a moment to stop gazing adoringly into your mobile’s screen and have a look around you, you’ll notice that the times, they are a changin’. More specifically, fall is descending upon those of us who live in the Northern Hemisphere and we want you to use your phone to document the arrival of this pumpkin spiced season.
If you’ve been keeping up with your homework, you’ll remember that we told you about some neat apps for making mobile videos with your iPhone and Android phones over at the Vimeo Video School:
10 iPhone Apps to Make Your Mobile Videos Shine
5 Video Apps for Your Android Phone
You’ll need to use at least 1 of these apps (or another video app of your choice) while you’re creating your video. Whether that means taking a time lapse, tilt shifting the leaves, or using some filters to make the season pop, the most important thing is to be creative and have fun!
Need some autumnal inspiration? Take a gander at these vids:


The Rules:
+ Download some video apps on your phone (check out our recommendations for iPhone apps and Android apps)
+ Shoot your fall inspiration
+ Make your video no longer than 1 minute
+ Let us know what app you used in your video's description
+ Upload and post your apptastic creation to the Weekend Project Group by Tuesday, October 9th at 11:59 PM EST
You can shoot anything that makes you think of fall, there’s no need to limit yourself to pumpkins and leaves! Remember that only videos made specifically for this Weekend Project will be considered. Don't forget to check out the Vimeo Music Store for songs to use in your creation!
All videos must be approved by the Vimeo Staff before appearing in the Group, so don’t worry if your video doesn’t show up at first; we’ll get to it!
The winner of this Weekend Project will receive a free Vimeo Plus account for one year!
If you're already a Plus member, you can gift the Plus account to whomever you choose, and we'll give you an extra 5GB of upload space for your account. The runner-up will receive an extra 3GB of upload space, Plus account or not.
Can’t wait to see what you come up with!
