But it's given us a great interview with Rainn Wilson (http://gizmodo.com/5428149/rainn-wilson-on-his-nikon-dslr-short-film-and-why-dwight-would-taste-banhammer) of The Office, and some of the films are actually pretty great. Case in point: The big winner, Chicken vs. Penguin (http://www.nikonfestival.com/blog/2009/12/15/chicken-vs-penguin/).

I actually really like this video—it's cute and offbeat and almost startlingly professional, especially in the editing and cinematography. The winner is Marko Slavnic (http://gizmodo.com/tag/markoslavnic/), a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, who will use his $100,000 winnings towards a feature film. Congratulations and good luck, Marko! [Nikon (http://www.nikonfestival.com/)]
