Ctrl+Alt+Space is our first ever film competition. We're inviting you to make a video using a piece of original music from Elite: Dangerous composer Erasmus Talbot and an opening title card selected specially for the competition. We want you to be as creative and crazy as you like, and submit your entry by May 8.
Six videos will be selected by Frontier's art and animation teams and we'll put the shortlist to the community to pick an overall winner to be announced soon after the poll closing date on May 15.
The overall winner will take home an Elite: Dangerous video starter kit, with Mad Catz headset, high-end Logitech mouse and keyboard and a video capture card to take your YouTube game to the next level.
The winner will also receive the first ever Elite: Dangerous Community Award – a unique Elite: Dangerous medal awarded exclusively to players who make an outstanding contribution to the community.
Ah. Got it. May your contest go well.
I'd participate, but creativity rarely schedules well. Looking forward to watching ALL of the entries!
For completeness and to avoid any misunderstanding, here is the COMPLETE quote from the newsletter (aqain).

I'm being accurate and helpful, as you can see by the response to me actually providing ALL of the information.
A bit of advice: Don't live your life for the praise of others.
You end up dying unfulfilled.
