Enlightenment and a Scour.com Contest
I have had a rather late start today, but it was not all drinking tea and eating toast. No, I was reckoning with two beast - my loss of page rank and a need to do something different. I managed to wrestle with both by finding a video competition for creating a Scour Commercial . Scour.com, a social search engine, is seeking entries for a 45 second or less commercial. It is a great opportunity to potentially win $500 as well as gaining some exposure on their site.

Well, I was inspired to do my own (but do not let me stop you from creating your own video and entering). My little cartoon eyes represent me, the essence at least, fairly well, so I decided to conintue on in my series of short animations. Leave a comment here if you have entered this contest. It is always fun to see how other’s approach such things!

That was awesome, haha.
“You will not sell links in your post, bad Ellie!” I roffled.
Is all of the audio you speaking, just doing some pitch and speed adjustments on some of the other clips? Whatever the case, very cute commercial! And nice, pleasing voice — whoever that is.
Sorry to hear about the pagerank loss; glad to see you’re using a bit of humor to get past it though.

Well, thank you very much. LOL. And yes, that is my voice - all of it. The modulation was made possible with the assistance of my friend Garage Band.
