Did you know that “RuneScape” is one of the top five terms searched for on
YouTube? As such, we like to check out the latest films made by the many
RuneScape movie boffins out there. They’re so good, in fact, that we’ve teamed
up with one of RuneScape’s most talented machinima (films made with game
engines) masterminds, TehNoobShow, to launch a competition to seek out the most
entertaining player-made RuneScape video known to humankind. The rules are
simple: create an original video short (around two minutes) that’s both
entertaining and creative, in the RuneScape game.
The competition launches today, and you have until the closing date of 25th
August to submit your videos on the YouTube website. When the entries are in,
Andrew, Mark Gerhard and some video-hungry members of the Community Management
team will then shortlist five finalists. Those five videos will then feature in
a RuneScape weekly poll, allowing the community to choose their favorite.
The video with the most votes will be declared the winner and will receive an
all-expenses-paid trip to Jagex Games Studio, from wherever they are in the
world, and, once here, they will get to meet the developers and creative types
that bring RuneScape to life. We’ll then send them off with an armful of signed
Jagex goodies. The four runners-up will bag some membership, autographed
t-shirts, mugs, mouse mats, mice and other stuff.
Please note that all videos must be made within RuneScape (live action isn’t
machinima), and must be submitted via YouTube. We cannot accept entries sent to
the Postbag or Gallery email. For a full list of rules and conditions, and to
see an example video from TehNoobShow, subscribe to our YouTube page at

If you’ve a question about the competition or are looking for some tips on
making your own video, check out this forum thread

wait to start checking out the contents of your creative brains.
