Wanna shoot Radiohead’s next video?

Is there anything this band isn’t doing? Today, Radiohead announced that they would be holding a contest, giving fans and filmmakers alike a chance to direct and produce the next music video off of In Rainbows. The real tip of the hat… you can pick whichever song you want.

TBD Records, Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim and animation Web portal Aniboom.com are sponsoring an online contest inviting Radiohead fans to produce an animated music video for any song from “In Rainbows,” the band’s popular 2007 album that was originally available for download at an optional price.

Online voters and a panel of judges will select finalists with Radiohead choosing a winner who will receive a $10,000 prize to produce a full-length animated music video. The competition began Monday and continues through April 27.
