The Quick Short Advertising Contest was a brickfilming competition run by Leonardo Escobar on the Bricks in Motion forums in 2009. The aim of the contest was to produce a 30-second brickfilm advertisement for a product, real or fictitious.
History

The contest was started on February 9, 2009.[1] It was sponsored by the website Moving Bricks, which appears to have been a brickfilm directory site.[2] Entries were required to be submitted between the 15th and the 22nd of March.
