Contest and stuff

So I didn't win the contest for lending club, but the contest organizers liked my video so much they gave me the "storyboard award" and $1500

Wow, I didn't realize the video needed to be done so soon o_o... I do think certain things could've been done better, and it certainly could've used some background music.

But, for being done in such a short time, I say bravo :)

The whole rating thing however seems kind of crappy, since it'll be really simple for people to get their friends to give 1 stars to the competing videos...

Yeah like the other video this one is really rough, all the graphics were done in one day and because I had to work today I needed to upload it this morning before I left.

The rating system does suck, but I imagine it will end up being similar to the other contest with the judges picking the winners

VMWare. Because we're not Parallels.

oh yeah

[trythil]

VMWare is virtualization software, not visualization software.

Just wanted to clear that up :P

Great job on the Lending Club contest. If you submitted the video earlier you probably would have won. I'm glad to see they did give you some prize money though.

Thanks, I wish I had heard of the contest earlier so I could have submitted sooner but still maintain high standards. Still, it was fun too make and the experience was helpful so any money is just a nice bonus.
