Nice find OP, now what to send in?

blumathu · 07-31-2012, 01:26 PM

This is such an awesome idea. This video will be interesting.

BruceW · 07-31-2012, 01:35 PM

I would love to contribute to this actually...that'd be so cool

jillyjo1 · 07-31-2012, 02:54 PM

This is awesome.

stayorleave27 · 07-31-2012, 03:09 PM

Already sent in a picture... gotta hope for the best!

SpotlightEyes · 07-31-2012, 03:23 PM

Neat idea but still pretty lame. Clicking through the options of what to submit, they clearly have storyboard-created the entire video already, and now just want the fans to voluntarily submit the content.

This band simply can't win. Good lord.

You're incredibly annoying

drop2d · 07-31-2012, 03:35 PM

At first I was like "C'mon! not another band wanting a fan to create a video..." But after reading through it, I think it's pretty cool. They seem to already have an idea of where they are headed and I'm looking forward to see how it turns out.

thebridge15 · 07-31-2012, 03:37 PM

That's pretty cool.

These are the posts that keep me away from the world.. (of antsmarching.org) haha. But seriously. Why does this kind of pessimism need to be expressed?

davestheman40 · 07-31-2012, 03:43 PM

I wonder how they're choosing the winner. I hope its not randomly, but then again I may have a better chance to win that way.

thebridge15 · 07-31-2012, 03:43 PM

Wasn't SpotlightEyes the guy who kept bitching out guys like Chad for even the most slightly negative setlist comments? This is a weird reversal.

Fans: We wish the band would ask for our input.
Band: Hey, we want your input!
Fans: Sweet!
SpotlightEyes: This is lame.

amazing.

Because it would go way better if they just did a free-for-all and mashed together whatever the hell fans sent them, right?

SpotlightEyes clearly made the PSU video and is still bitter that management made him take it down

Definitely like the idea, my roommate and I might be working on some of these at some point in the near future.

I thought this would be fun, so I sent a few in.

My submissions:

Show Some Love
I saw this category asking for hug pics, and I hug my daughter and awful lot so I got all the pics I could of her and I sharing a hug.

Your daughter is adorable!

We need a deadline for this. And I wonder they need to be high resolution?

The pics I shared are the thumbnails but I did the submitted ones in higher res, for the music video they'll want it to be the best format and size probably for higher res displays so it doesn't look all fuzzy or distorted when shown in a bigger size.

Yeah, I figured high res would be better, but I don't have a camera, just an iphone. Hoping that the deadline isn't before the next time I see my brother since he has a nice camera.

laristarr77 · 07-31-2012, 05:22 PM

I am so excited to do this! I'll be using my kids too.

Can you only submit for one category or can you go back and submit for others?

I'm submitting one for every category. So far I've only got a few done and submitted but tonight and tomorrow I'm going to work on and go back and do the rest.

I don't think I'll win or be in the video - I'm sure there will be much better entries, but it's at least worth trying.
