Not to be out done by the recent flurry of convention announcements, The Blizzard World Wide Invitational 2008 is throwing out an announcement or two of its own. Today, they are officially announcing a Machinma contest. There will be two categories, one for movies, and one for TV Commercials for WoW items. Online submission is open from June 9th to June 16th. You can check out the contest details (Including the prizes, of course) here.
If Machinima isn't your thing, but you're still creative in other arenas, the announcement also mentions that they will reveal more contests in the near future.
At the moment, the official terms suggest that the contest is open only to Europeans, but if that pans out, I'm certain American Machinimists will get a crack at things at Blizzcon 2008.

entering.
Still looking for voice actors and body actors, so if you want to be rewarded for a piece of machinima that might have a small shot at winning, mail lowette [at] gmail [dot] com ^^

Lame, this contest isn't available to those in the US!

Entering very likely. The prizes are a lot more interesting than on the L70ETC contest.
US people will get their contest on BlizzCon (where the EU people are not allowed).
