Honorable Mention

So as expected, I did not win the Aspire One Contest. Just wasn't getting the views, and comments. But I am glad that the top 3 videos that won, were some that I liked a lot and I felt actually deserved to win.

And as a nice gesture, my video was featured as an Honorable Mention. Although there are no prizes for honorable mention, it is a great honor just to have my work recognized. So thank you so much to ACER for the opportunity to compete. I live for video contests! And congratulations to all the winners and my fellow honorable mentionees. I felt everyone got what they deserved, especially those that worked hard and used true creativity for their videos.

Here's a list of the winners and honorable mentions:

And just for the heck of it, here's my video for the Acer Aspire One Netbook Contest, ALIENS and COW LIPS.

Yup, Another One.

So I cut together another video for the Aspire One Promo Contest. This time with the help of Brandon White and Chris Plouffe.

First Contest of the Year

So here we are, back in the contest saddle again. This time it's for Acer's Aspire One Netbook Contest. A prize package that includes cash and a Netbook of course.

Check it out here: http://www.wantonecontest.com/

You do the usual, look over the rules, figure out what you can and can't do, then come up with an idea. Acer's basic idea is just make a vid/ad about the Aspire Netbook and get as many views, ratings, and comments as humanly possible.

For some reason the Alien Conspiracy idea popped into my head and I figured it would be fun to play with animation again.

Threw together a bunch of drawings and graphics mainly using Inkscape and MSpaint and did all the animating in Sony Vegas. I did all the voices and most of the sound effects. So I hope everyone likes it.

As I said, it's all about the views, the ratings, and the comments, so if you wanna help, check out the video on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Anq2rVoBLbM and watch and rate highly.
