There has been a proposal put forth to start a marketing project similar to the Firefox Flicks campaign for Ubuntu. The purpose of the campaign would be to raise the brand awareness level of Ubuntu. Contributors would be able to submit short films advertising Ubuntu. These submissions would then be voted on by site visitors.
The US Teams Project is asking all state loco’s to participate in this project, but I believe the whole Ubuntu community should get behind this project. We need to do whatever we can to find new and inventive ways to advocate Ubuntu. We must reach the masses if we have any expectation of becoming the desktop of choice.
