The compliment was all I took.

I hope you have a better day today!

Now that I've totally built up my idea for this month's contest, here's what happened...

Either the idea itself was simply greater in mind than in body, or rather, finished product... or...

I rushed it so fast affraid that someone else might come up with the same idea that it just didn't turn out that great.

In any case, it's not quite what I hoped it would be, but nevertheless, it's done and I don't really want to put any further thought into it.

So, if you still with me, you can now view my entry. Windows Media Player viewers can click here and Quicktime users can click here.

I’m glad you got it done Jake even if you felt it was rushed.

It’s a pretty fine video, though it’s not what I was imagining. I’m not sure what I was imagining hmm
And I know it’s a parody I just can’t quite put my finger on what it is. So although I’m not quite sure where it’s coming from - as a stand alone vid it’s good!

Char, great job, as usual!!! I nearly fell outta my chair when I heard the Price is Right Theme

And Jake, great usage of the Las Vegas theme... I was all what does this have to do with travel/tourism? then you popped in with the whole what happens... Yeah babe!

Gee, Jake, I'm not sure what sort of error this is, but when it got to the scene where Jack was asking Sawyer some sort of questions, the audio just completely disappears. I mean, it's almost like my brain just does not acknowledge that scene or something. Weird, huh?

I'm kidding, of course (though with my computer, sometimes you never know...

). Great idea to use the "what happens" concept like that! Don't know what you felt wasn't quite done about it. It looked good to me! Even if I couldn't quite hear some of those words. I'm sure Jack was just complimenting Sawyer on all the charity work he does or something like that... Uh-huh. Yup. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Thanks also for providing a WMP version in addition to QuickTime. Not that I have anything against QT, I just use WMP a lot more and it's nice to be able to watch the vids in one throw, rather than have to close and open players back and forth. Very thoughtful of you to offer a choice!

Oh, and BTW, I have an idea of my own brewing but am still not sure if it'll get done and sent in or not. The second idea I had would've been hysterical I feel safe to say. But it also would've required somebody like ILM to pull it off, so not too surprisingly, I decided not to try and render it out myself and switched to a less technically difficult idea.

lostzilla, that was incredible creative. However, the hell if I would be going to that island. I'll stick to Charlie's Sugarplume fairies...lol. But anyway, great job.

This is going to be such a hard contest again because so far all the entries are amazing. I think you guys get together and plan this out to make our jobs harder...lol.

Lostzilla: I agree with Lostcalier, that video was awesome, but I sure as fuck don't want to go anywhere near that island. LOL. Nevertheless awesome job.

*hiding behind chair*

Oh man, lostzilla, that was about the scariest, freakiest vid I've ever seen! It was great!

I've got a contest vid finally in the works and my goal is to win Last Place!

You guys do give out a prize for last place, right?

'Cause with this sort of competition, that's about as high as I can see fit to aim! LOL!

Man, you people are good at this!

KKDSAJHDujhfdjdhsafkjddsaaklj That was scary :ShOCk: But Daaaaaaammmmmmmnnnn that was good. I honestly wouldn't be able to distinguish that thing from a movie trailer in theatres... honestly, I can't believe some of you people, like Charmax and LostZilla, aren't like... SELLING these skills

What we need is someone with some holywood connections... then as a prize for first place in one of the contests, you get to be.... AN APPRENTICE!!! DUN DUN DUN!!!

So, cool once again. But WHY do these have to be so hard to judge now?!?!

I can assure you guys (anyone who enters this contest) this one thing at least: you'll all be LOVED by at least ONE of us judges. But again, like last time, that's not gonna make as much difference

the damn things are all so good that our lists of winners are COMPLETELY different from each others'

Sigh... wish us luck for this month. >.< and this goes to all entrants this month: don't feel bad if you don't win. These are all so damn good it's hard to distinguish which is good and which isn't as good

ok glad you guys like it. It was meant to be scary, cuz i thought the whole thing was perfectly done by Charmax, so I went the other way. Anyway I'm looking forward to see you guys entries!

Rock On LVI

Lostzilla that was creepy!

It’s the Blair Witch approach to tourist information. The soundtrack is really scary as is the screaming fast edits at the end. It’s a cool video. It makes the island not so much a “place to visit before you die” as “a place to visit when you die”. I’ll certainly be crossing it off my itinerary

I was watching all the videos for the April Contest and I was wondering how to get my video on this forum so people can see it....I like my video. Everyone elses videos are cool to, but I like Lostzillas best thus far.
