Time: 16 September - 19 October 2007
Challenge: The Drive for Food Challenge
Time: 3-4 November 2007
Destination: Food
Hungry for a little food adventure? Well, here’s our suggestion: take a little drive in search of a food experience, while immersing yourself in the beauty our country. While you’re at it, make a short video, y’know, just to ensure you get all the credit as the person to elevate a food joint/region to rival that of say, Kajang (satay, anyone?).
Oh, to make it just a tad more interesting, we’re providing a little incentive for all your efforts. Yes, it’s a contest.
Phase 1: The Online Drive
Stand a chance to win RM100 weekly from Sept 16 – Oct 19, simply by sending in a 30-60 sec video clip on either one of the following topics:
- Favourite makan place
- Favourite food
- Favourite holiday destination
Your video(s) may be posted on YouTube or a similar video sharing site; just don’t forget to provide an embed link to allow us to link to it.
Videos will be judged based on originality, creative expression and entertainment value. The 10 best entries, chosen by a panel of judges, will determine the 10 finalists for the second round, where the BIG prizes await.
Phase 2: Drive for Food Challenge
If you’re chosen to become one of the 10 finalists, you’ll be required to form a team comprising between two and four members. And yes, you’ll need to take a drive. The route: KL to Penang.
Each team must submit a video travelogue of its journey – the content topic can be of a particular dish, a restaurant, or a travel destination.
Accommodation, and petrol and toll allowances will be provided; you’ll only need to come along with your own vehicle and your food-sniffing senses in prime mode!
