THE OPERATION SAVE CLARK KENT VIDEO CONTEST
Open to all forum members and their friends.  *
http://opsaveck.proboards52.com

Operation Save Clark Kent was created by an impassioned group of Smallville fans concerned about the show's ethical stance in portraying Clark Kent. This group, The Red Jacket Defenders, believes that the character portrayed on SMALLVILLE currently bears little resemblance to the character defined for over 70 years in American popular culture. They believe that SMALLVILLE's Clark Kent can be written to restore faith in the character and give hope, a staple of the SUPERMAN character, to future generations of SUPERMAN fans.

To support our efforts we are running a video contest for amateur video makers to submit their efforts for our cause.
*^Winners videos will be featured on the OSCK website and will be given official winners banners and promotional artwork they can post on their own sites.
