For all you aspiring rock stars out there, here’s your chance at music video fame and fortune! Metacafe and MTV Virtual Worlds have just launched the first-ever “MTV’s Virtual Worlds Virtual Music Video Contest – check it out at www.metacafe.com/virtualworlds.

Get your creative juices flowing with audio tracks from some of the hottest up-and-coming bands, video clips and online editing tools – supplied by MTV and Metacafe – and direct and film your own music video in one of MTV Networks’ seven virtual worlds. Contest submissions can be uploaded to Metacafe from now until December 4, 2007.

Entries will initially be evaluated using Metacafe’s VideoRankTM system, which gauges each viewer’s reaction to every video and automatically exposes audience favorites. The top 10 finalists will be evaluated by a panel of MTV judges on creativity and originality, technical execution and overall impression. One grand prize winner will receive a Sony Vegas Pro 8 professional video/audio editing and DVD creation software package, and two first-place winners will receive $2,000 virtual MTV bucks.

Featured artists and songs include: Saves the Day – “Can’t Stay the Same;” A Cursive Memory – “Everything;” Dannel Vonn Dillon – “Worn and of Plastic;” Dr. Manhattan – “Big Chomper;” Grayskul – “Us.”
