The film will star James Corden and will have a Mercedes-Benz CLA AMG Sport at the centre it, which is a four-door coupe and a twist on conventional cars.Anyone is welcome to enter the #CLAstory competition if they are either part of the Mercedes-Benz online community, a film enthusiast, a creative influencer, a film student or just someone with the nous to create a special story.To give a basic framework for the storyline of the online film, Instagram users Jiri Siftar, Alan Brutenic and Allan Edward Hinton have been working with Mercedes-Benz and James Corden to create three short videos. These are just a few scenes that will make up part of the film; one from the beginning, one from the middle and one from the end.Entrants to the #CLAstory programme will need to provide the six scenes that are missing. These film directors can show off what they have made by uploading their videos to the Mercedes-Benz UK Instagram channel, titled mercedesbenzuk.A winning entry will be selected from each of the potential six scenes and then they will be put to public vote to decide who will be directing the #CLAstory. As a prize for getting to the finals, winners of each of the six scenes will receive their own GoPro camera.Communications and events director for Mercedes-Benz Cars Rob Halloway said: \u201c#CLAstory is an initiative which gives others the chance to tell their story and present the Mercedes-Benz brand in a way that is credible, relevant and appealing to them. It means we can pair an as yet unknown-but-talented director with one of the country\u2019s most well-known actors – and one of our coolest cars.\u201d"},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Latest News","item":"https:\/\/smart-motoring.com\/latest-news\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Cars","item":"https:\/\/smart-motoring.com\/latest-news\/\/cars\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"James Corden teams up with Mercedes-Benz","item":"https:\/\/smart-motoring.com\/latest-news\/cars\/james-corden-teams-mercedes-benz\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
