We're often asked what and who is "indie."

They are young, and they are older folks. They're pros, and they're just starting. They're from the industry, they're from all walks of life. Help us define just who indie film folks are. And in the process, you might be selected to win one of several prizes.

Enter the contest to have your video (under 90 seconds) be part of the Seriously Indie campaign. Just tell us why you're an indie: who you are, what you do for a 'day' job and where geographically, that your an indie, because ______ -- and lastly, why you read or follow or are a fan of Indie Slate mag.

Example: "I'm Indie Dave, I'm an editor and publisher in my day job, and I'm an indie because I was inspired by movies, even had my life changed by some. I've always loved film and I have stories to tell of my own. In a way, it's a chance to leave a thumbprint on the world. I read Indie Slate magazine because ... I'm Indie Dave, and I'm seriously indie!"
