Wow! We've been wanting to get into the video craze for a while now, and this AR contest seemed like the perfect opportunity to get our feet wet. It was actually a very fun experience, and much more work than we initially anticipated :)  So without further ado, here's our contest submission:

 

Please let us know what you think. Any feedback is appreciated, especially since this was our first shot (I'm sure we have a lot to learn). A post of outtakes is coming soon...

Thanks in advance for any comments!

Oh sure, use the old "cute kid" trick. I thought I was throwing a cheap shot by using a cuddly lap dog, but the cute kid trumps that. Why couldn't all these good videos have been submitted Monday, AFTER the voting was over? 

In all seriousness Candis, very well done. You should be extremely proud of your first foray into video. For purely selfish reasons, I just wish all the strong competitors showed up late to the party.... 

: )

Thanks for following on Twitter!

Mike - Hey, whatever works :)  And as for our video even coming close to yours in this competition... puh-lease, just stop.

Russ - I just used the Windows Movie Maker program that came on laptop. It was really easy! You should submit an entry before the deadline ;)

Candis- I loved your Video....well, not all the stuff about your company....but the soft part of why to use your company.  Now I'm sure that made perfect sense.....and it did to me :)  OK< I liked how everything flipped around, it entertained me, and the Black and white to color I liked a lot.  Good Job, and good luck in the contest .

Kathy - Glad we could "entertain" you... that was part of our goal :)  Hope all went well with your virtual open house on Saturday!

Cyndee - thanks so much! I just used a digital camera and the Windows Movie Maker software that came on my laptop! It was actually very easy, but time-consuming since I'm a perfectionist sometimes :)  Probably see you later today on twitter (@candees)!
