Friends With Money

A few friends of mine are looking to win a contest.

Don't have an account you say? If you have a GOOGLE account, you have a YouTube account. Just click on the "sign in" and use your Google username and password.

Don't have either you say? Well it's really easy to create one and I highly recommend it. Click here--

REASONS TO COMMENT
Money (or "Why would I want to help?")
This is what makes the world go round. The creators of the video are giving away $5,000 in gifts to the top 15 commenters. Here's how they'll do it:
1st place: $1,000 Gift Card
2nd & 3rd place: $500 Gift Card each
Top 12 runner ups: $250 Gift Card
The cards themselves can be Visa, or to a store of your choice. The winner will be determined by a tally at the end of the competition. Keep in mind that you can only make one comment per username per day. In order to get ahead of the curve, you can comment as a team of users in order to bump up your numbers. If you want to be a team, you must email the usernames on over to sarah.swanson85@yahoo.com by December 1st.

Friendship (or "Awww, isn't that nice.")
Jared and I went to BYU together way back when. We were together through several film classes, which is saying a lot. He helped me out a lot with getting equipment and with editing my senior film Dirt. We did a lot of stuff. Stuff that made us friends.

That just pulls at your heart strings right? If you're friends with me, you'd want to support my friends, right? If not, re-read the money argument.

Eric (or "Eric's motives behind it all")
Spencer and I actually made an agreement with Jared. If they win the project they'll use a portion of their newfound money to help fund a feature film that Spencer and I are making. That's what I want to do for a living, why not actually try to make it happen?

To do so, we really do need your help to leave a comment. Preferably once a day. I mean it's really not so hard... just go and leave a comment. They don't even have to be nice comments. If you don't have an account there already, it's really really really simple. If you would like a daily email reminder, just let me know, that could help you in remembering to comment each day. Whether you're doing it for the money, out of the goodness of your heart, or because you want to see how spectacularly bad a feature film by me would be, just do it.
