This, though, was another competition that I *did* put a lot more effort into. I posted about it here last month to tell you to enter.
And I just got chosen as one of 5 finalists! They're flying me, Kate & Amy to LA next weekend. The winner will be chosen by a panel of celebrities on Pangea Day, Sat May 10th. Cross your fingers for me - and help the judges know that you love me by rating my qualifying video at http://www.twango.com/media/PangeaDay.film/ruperthowe.10021 (you have to sign up for Nokia's video sharing site to rate/vote (boo!) but if you can be bothered to do that, leave a comment to let me know so that I can send you huge electronic love) I told you that you should have entered! Thank you so much to everyone who's already signed up and rated me. I know who you are ;) Rupert http://twittervlog.tv --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, "Rupert Howe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I should've posted this here before, but I thought David Howell > would've done it already. > > Nokia have asked him to run a parallel competition at > http://davidhowellstudios.com/ > > Both Nokia and Dave are running what is basically a videoblogging > competition, and there's not much competition at the moment, so > there's a good chance of you winning. > > You don't have to shoot on a phone to win (though it'd probably help). > > Films submitted should be 2 minutes long.
