It's back! Star Wars Youtubers unite for the 2nd Annual Star Wars Music Video Festival. The “Sarlacc Pit” podcast and GalacticBinder.com are proud to present this unifying festival to showcase the superb talents of our vast community.
Amateur fans will create a music video using only Star Wars or Clone Wars video and /or images. Select a song or piece of music of your choice and add video to it. You can use original music if you wish. No fan films will be included, which means no self shot video at all. You may use interview video or audio, but audio must be included in addition with your song or piece of music you choose.
