Rockstar Announces Cross Platform Editor Contest
This isn't the first time Rockstar has hosted a competition to create the official music video for a song. However it is the first time that players from three platforms may enter.
Before the release of the Freemode Events update, the Rockstar Editor, a feature-rich and versatile game play recording and video editing suite designed especially for GTA V, was only available on the PC. The update, however, brought the Editor, in a somewhat limited form, to the next generation consoles as well. With the competition increasing, it is only fitting that Rockstar up the stakes as well. The winner will take home a prize like no other Rockstar competition winner did before.
Wanderer, by Little Dragon, was featured on the recently released "Welcome To Los Santos" soundtrack CD, and can also be listened to on the in-game radio station, the Lab. Little Dragon and Rockstar have posted a short guide on what you should put together.
Entrants are challenged to create a music video using the Rockstar Editor telling the story of a rogue — a very clever double-agent or double-crosser who plays two sides of a criminal enterprise to her or his own advantage.
The prize pack the winner can take home will include a golden peripheral for their platform of choice (controller for PS4 or Xbox One, Mouse for PC) with their Social Club ID printed on it. You'll also get a one of a kind director's chair with the Rockstar Editor logo on it, plus your Social Club ID, and a never before seen GTA V Varsity Jacket with, you guessed it, your Social Club ID. Two runner ups will receive $100 gift cards to the Rockstar Warehouse, as well as some sweet in-game prizes. To make your video eligible, simple tag it with "wanderer".
Will any of you guys be entering your Rockstar Editor videos into this competition? Better make sure your Social Club ID is one you want emblazoned everywhere!
