Domino’s will give free pizza for a year for the best homemade movie.

The Ann Arbor, Mich.-based pizza chain is accepting videos through Aug. 21 at www.DominosFilmFest.com, where customers will be able to vote on their favorite home movies between Sept. 7 to Sept. 11. The winner will receive free pizza for a year in the form of $1,560 in Domino’s eGift cards.

The second-place winner will get $500 in Domino’s pizza, the third-place winner $200.

The company is holding the contest after its latest commercial for its $5.99 Mix & Match deal, which was filmed on an iPhone.

“Millions of Americans are spending more time than ever at home and looking for activities to entertain their families,” Kate Trumbull, Domino’s vice president of advertising, said in a statement.

She noted that some of the submissions could be used in a future commercial.
