A judging panel will then decide the best video in three categories, best overall video, best educational video and most entertaining video, and the winners will receive a Zeiss Cinemizer and an iPod Touch.

Joining is free and you will have the opportunity to rate and comment on videos hosted on the site and learn about your peers' experience. If you would like more information on this exciting offer feel free to visit the community site next week or contact us at OTEurope. Good luck!
