The video ends with another still, which contestants for the second chapter had to then interpret and build upon.&nbsp; The result is a story told by multiple filmmakers, each with their own style of cinematography, dialogue and film making.&nbsp; Each chapter has different actors, but the actors look enough alike that it&#8217;s easy to tell which character is which.<\/p>\n<p>The contest will have a total of six chapters, and with four of the chapters now completed I&#8217;m curious to see if the contestants will ultimately be able to tie the story together in a neat package, or if we&#8217;ll end up with an ending that does not do justice to Laforet&#8217;s alluring beginning.&nbsp; With an impressive list of filmmakers on the judges&#8217; panel, my hope is that they&#8217;ll be able to find an ending that will satisfy the viewers in both its storytelling and its cinematography.&nbsp; The completed chapters are available <a href=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\/groups\/beyondthestill\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here on Vimeo<\/a>, along with the contest details.&nbsp; Chapter 5 entries are due by June 10, but there&#8217;s still lots of time to complete an entry for the final chapter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vincent Laforet created this video with a Canon 7D as the first chapter in a series for the Canon video contest &#8220;The Story Beyond the Still.&#8221;
