EASTER

Enjoy A Short Transient Event Right-away (commonly abbreviated to EASTER), is an annual brickfilming competition. Participants must create an Easter themed brickfilm with the duration of 15 or 20 seconds (depending on the host) within a given time limit, which is usually about about two weeks. Originally hosted on Brickfilms.com in 2007 by Richard Frost, EASTER is now hosted on the website Bricks in Motion. The 2014 edition of the contest was hosted by Michael Jurist.
