Here are some more of the contest sketch cards that I made.

Over at the Rebelscum forums I ran a contest a contest and gave away some sketch cards. Here are a few of the cards that I made.

I really wanted to use that pun to let you all know that I won the Olivia Munn contest, but alas I didn’t.  boo who.  Olivia is the co-host of the G4 show called Attack of the Show.  It would appear that she has picked a pitch that would essentially be re-creating her show in the Star Wars Universe.  I thought it was supposed to be a Fan Film that was made for Star Wars Fans and not just for Olivia Munn fans?  Oh well.

So the winner is supposed to be announced tomorrow, but Olivia has narrowed the selection down to her top 6 choices.  They’ve only revealed 3 of the top 6 on the eve of the final announcement, so I’m thinking that I didn’t win even though I’M ONE OF THE TOP SIX.  I guess we’ll have to wait and see.  :D

I’m not sure why, but the video uploaded to the Atom.com site doesn’t play all the way to the end.  I hope that this won’t negatively impact my chances at winning the contest.  Here’s the video posted on to YouTube.

Atom.com has teamed up with G4 Co-Host Olivia Munn to create Operation Olivia. Star Wars Fan boys are giving the opportunity to pitch an idea for a short Star Wars Fan film. Olivia with be a judge awarding the winner $5,000.00 and six hours of her time to make the fan film a reality.

I worked over the weekend setting up a green screen, filmed on Monday, and edited it Tuesday and Wednesday night only to have it look like the video did work on the Atom site.  So in a mad dash, I created a new pitch and then uploaded it, only to find out that the original one WAS working.  *sigh*  Now we wait and see what happens next.

So here I am, hamming it up in front of the camera, again.  I spent the weekend running around gathering supplies so that I could get some test shots done and then start shooting footage today for a contest that ends, um Wednesday-ish.  So I better get crackin’.

Here are some more of the sketch cards that I made for the contest that I ran last week on the RebelScum forums.  These sketch cards are 2.5″ x 3.5″.

Last November I wrote about an advertisement for the Barclaycard  (a cashless pay card that you wave at the register instead of sliding it through and entering your pin like an ATM card) that had a guy going through his daily routine while riding on a waterslide.  You can see the original post here.  Well it looks like they’ve had a bit of success with the ad and are now sponsoring a contest to make your own waterslide ad.  Unfortunately for me the contest is only open to residents of the UK 18 or older.  Entries close 8th March and voting begins on the 9th.

Because I had done such a stellar job of blogging about the original waterslide video, the contest organizers have given me access to a behind the scenes video.

Hear that?  That is the sound of anticipation….trickling away.
