The contest is simple; create your own 60-second short film using either the video game Spore or the Spore Creature Creator. The video should then be uploaded to HERE and the official entry form filled out no later than midnight on December 2.

Submissions will be judged by a panel including Will Wright immediately following the contest deadline with the best video being announced on December 4.
