I can't go through my comment rounds without a shoutout to this vid. This was more than I could have ever hoped for from the contest

Just freaking fan-TASTIC. I loved loved loved how youused every single sound effect from the song (which btw is one impossibly hard and gutsy song

kudos!) Not only that, but it fit Sawyer so well, the lip-synching was excellent, and you had a whole story to it

This vid is just an example of perfect planning to really keep everything together and make it look like it's meant to be. Even though the effect, whatever it was, that you put in as the song "started"made it look bad quality, and the effect of everything moving (though cool a lot of times) was annoying at times, it still finished in such an excellent and professional way there's just no way someone can be bothered by those

(Sorry about mentioning that, but it's more of an example to everyone else about just how little things like that matter compared to story, beats, and originality liek you had

)
Back to the Sawyer thing:

since my mom is... a Sawyerette... she made me put this vid on a loop on my computer for an hour. But I still love it LOL

Do you, by any chance, have a higher-quality version to release btw?

LMFAO! Even my mom loved it!

(and she's very critical of other videos on LVI)

And uh.....everything Hobbes said. Awesome. I can see why this got first place.

I laughed with delight through the entire thing! I swear, I've watched it like a dozen times easy since I first saw it! The lip sync was amazing and the clip choices were excellent.

When Sawyer did the "expectorating" line, I swear, it looked like he was going pa-tooey! even though I knew he wasn't...

A brilliant, brilliant job! Congrats on first place!

That was awesome! I was actually going to do this song, but this is way better than any ideas I had. Congrats on the first place - you deserve it!

LMAO.

This is such a hard song to vid, but you did it so incredibly well! It was absolutely hilarious, and the best bits were when you had the sound effects, and managed to make them look like they were really being done by Sawyer.

Great vid, Belxf.

This vid definitely reminded me why I love Sawyer so much!

I love how you matched the sound effects to the video and the lip syncing was very well done. The moving camera effect tremendously added to the vid as well.

And I couldn't help but laugh at how you made it seem that even Charlie had a little crush on Sawyer.

Great work.
