Star Wars Go Rogue Contest

By Reggie's Take on September 11, 2016

Rogue One is due out to theaters in December and Lucasfilm is asking fans to create their own stop-motion videos.

To celebrate the creativity of Star Wars fans, Lucasfilm and the creative network Tongal have collaborated with a team of fans to create a series of short stop-motion videos that feature new products for Rogue One.

These videos beside being fun to watch also announce a contest entitled “Go Rogue” where fans will be able to share their own creative “Rogue One” stories or skits set in everyone’s favorite galaxy. The contest will begin on September 30th.

“These fan-created shorts are a tribute to the incredible content that the Star Wars community posts online every day. The Go Rogue campaign was designed with Star Wars fans in mind — we want them to be front and center in the run up to Rogue One by imagining and creating their own Rogue Stories.” Said, Jimmy Pitaro, chairman, Disney Consumer Products and Interactive Media

The winners of the “Go Rogue” contest will be chosen and judged by a panel that will also include Rogue One: A Star Wars Story director Gareth Edwards and invited to a screening of “Rogue One” and have their entries shown up on the big screen.

In the mean time check out the two videos below that were done as part of this.

The Empire has misplaced the building instructions to the Death Star. Jyn Erso has followed an Imperial search team to the markets of Jedha hoping to recover the instructions first.

With increasing pressure from Director Krennic, Jyn must join forces with the Rebels on Jedha to take on enemies of all shapes and sizes. Will they escape Jedha with the Empire’s building instructions? Or will Krennic’s Death Star be back on plan?
