Well maybe not so much celebrities as professionals in the film and music industries. A panel of judges that includes actor / director Chad Lowe is judging the 10 music video finalists in the DiscoverOhioFilm Challenge...
The YouTube site for the Ohio Film Music Video Challenge now links to the ten finalists only.
One music video from Akron...
One music video from Dayton...
One music video from Twinsburg...
Three music videos from Cincinnati...
Four music videos from Columbus...
I thought Twinsburg was a Cleveland suburb... Wikipedia says it is in Summit County and is part of the Akron Metropolitan Statistical Area. Twinsburg is halfway between Cleveland and Akron, according to Wikipedia. I lived in Akron in the 80's.
The heart of Rock and Roll is still Cleveland....
Huey Lewis said so. Do you notice that there are no Cleveland music videos among the finalists? Nothing... Nada. Zilch... that's why I looked up where Twinsburg was. Even though the film makers said "Twinsburg" I was going to say that Twinsburg was a Cleveland suburb.
Not one Cleveland music video made the cut.
What's up with that?
Not all of the Ohio music videos are/were rock and roll though...
The winners of the challenge will be announced at the House of Blues in Cleveland on March 31, 2009 at 5:00 P.M. the event is FREE.

Thanks Sheldon I am in Columbus... four are from Columbus.
Nice !! Go Columbus !!!! :o)
Columbus Rocks... or has the best film makers in the state??? Personally I think this it is more about movie making than music... Or maybe Columbus has the film makers who are the most motivated. Thanks again.
