The Done In 60 Seconds Award (abbreviated DISS) is an award presented annually by the British film magazine Empire to the winner of that year's Done In 60 Seconds Competition, in which participants recreate a known film in 60-seconds. The Done In 60 Seconds Award was first introduced at the 13th Empire Awards in 2008, with Nick Jesper from the United Kingdom receiving the award for his 60-second version of Titanic. The competition was open for its first two years only to entries from the United Kingdom and has since become an international competition with each participating country selecting its own local winner (or number of finalists) which then joins the global shortlist of films, from which a panel of judges selects the global winner.
The 2015 competition will be running in the following countries: Armenia, Brazil, Bulgaria, Greece, Kazakhstan, Poland, Russia, Serbia and the United Kingdom. The start date for the 2015 entries was October 29, 2014 at 12:00 and the closing date for entries will be January 31, 2015 at 23:59. The local winners will be showcased at the 20th Empire Awards on March 29, 2015 where a panel of judges will choose the Global Done In 60 Seconds winner.
Since its inception, the award has been given to five United Kingdom winners. Other winners include Kazakhstan and the Netherlands with one award each. David Smith from the United Kingdom is the most recent winner in this category for There Will Be Blood (Milk), his 60-second film version of There Will Be Blood.
