Congratulations to the winners. A bit surprised at the results, I thought monster was the only deserving of those three to get in the top 3, but all the same, congrats.

 

Wow. Erm how did micah win with a 35 second video?

 

Because the video in itself was in the time limits, the extra seconds were added on from the video editing site.

Out of curiosity, who do you think deserved those prices?

The one chosen for the first place prize copied their material from an American Television commercial for GEICO INSURANCE... they did NOT make this video themselves! Although all prizes are appreciated and the contest was a lot of fun to do... this is not right. I noticed this right away and figured this would be noticed but now I realize this is an American company that did all the work for this commercial that airs quite regularly and now I feel I must share this here to the moderators about this. It is something I am sure can be checked, because it is true. This person unfortunately used copyrighted material off a television commercial that airs in America. You must be told this. I had overlooked this not being clear to judges because I didn't think it all the way though because it was so obvious to me, being here in America.

Congratulations jokjinari! You deserved to win. :)

Also congratulations to micah, monster and the runner-ups!

Thank you CooperO for your best wishes but jokinari did not use his own material... I am sure the judges will be looking into this. The material is a popular television commercial for GEICO insurance here in the United States... so, it is probably copyrighted.

UGH... the crystals need to be split and applied to imabeast528 account as he did just as much work on this video as I did! All the crystals were put into my account only.... our prize is appreciated but we both did the work so we have to split the prize and the prize wasn't applied correctly. I am sure this is not on purpose but is discouraging to imabeast528 so BRUCE or whoever applied the crystals please, please fix this right away>?????? Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! Thanks for the acknowledgement and everyone who put forth the effort to do their own material for these videos.

Yes, I noticed this... I don't really know what to say, but that it is not his own material.

They should HAVE TO do something about it! This is copyrighted, illegally used material! I am sure that they would have to look into it, don't you think? I mean, it's not like they can't check on this. They can go into GEICO websites and review all their commercials, heck, they can watch American TV over their computers during the football games and see this commercial over, and over, and over....

Selena, I was really hoping you would get runner up... I loved your ideas, especially the dominos... maybe talking slower because you have such great accent but a little hard to understand for those of us who are not fortunate enough to live in England. I was a little worried about our American accents that can be difficult for others to follow when they are from other countries so we did ours over, and over and over until we thought it would be clear enough.... but your imagination and creativity are really great!

They won't do anything about it now.

We are going to have to go and do some errands here shortly but will be back online in about four hours from now... we will be checking in on the crystal issue and also this situation of not using "unique" material as per the instructions! I overlooked this possibly being an issue since everyone knows that this plays on tv all the time but obviously not in Russia. Okay, we will see ya later!
