tip of my hat for taking criticism well.
lot of the response from QBNers has been amplified by the anonymity of te internet.
but ya crowd sourcing is bad... mmmmkay.

I can't fucking believe they are crowd-sourcing video ads...
This is beyond pathetic.. you all deserve to freakin' get screwed over..
You do realize you are completely destroying the respective industry by participating in this garbage?
I didn't think there was a way that I could hate GoDaddy more.. but seeing this shit I want physically hurt them and everyone who participates in this shit.
But again, that's why all of it sucks anyways.

sorry, I tried watching wiggers doing their thing. But quickly closed the window at like 5 seconds.

You entered a GoDaddy contest. I'm surprised you'd even admit to it, let alone complain about how your slow, crap-rap didn't get into the top three. Dude took a well-known, overplayed song from 50 Cent replaced the lyrics to be about GoDaddy. When I saw the splash screen for your video I was expecting some shitty Emimem rip, but no, it didn't even get to the Light Funky Ones bad. Maybe next time you'll do better with Flashing Lights from Kanye or maybe even a GoDaddy themed Black Eyed Peas song.

It's like picking the least ugly girl to fuck.

Holy shit your video is a disgrace to hiphop

The execution and quality of your video far surpasses third place.
The mime should have won. I'm not sure how third place even got so far.

You tried too hard to be funny/cool.
Theirs was more silly and effortless.
b&W wasn't working foe me either, godaddy is colourful, fun and energetic.

same here.
i finished the first video but couldn't finish yours
think its cuz the first video has story that it draws people in. (i hate the singing) even tho the second video seem like it has more polished production but lame rap, no story.

should have been in 3d

I finished the first clip and I made it to about 0:44 of yours.
At least you entered take solace in that.

Also, I didn't understand the switching back & forth from the preppy look to the gangster look.
was good production though, yes.

I watched the winning one to the end but skipped through yours.
The other was cheap and cheerful like GoDaddy. Colourful and playful. Yours was far better production wise of course but I can see why the other one won.

what's this wigger shit?
- brandelec0
you should've aimed for 1st place rather than 3rd

Lemme start by letting you know I really like the way yours was done. NOW, to be completely honest, I can't stand the song... it's just... way overdone already. The 'rap' beat, lyrics, etc. are not as funny and interesting to people as they were before.
On the other hand, the winner (altho it's not shot and done as nicely as yours) got smart and not only went 'funnier' but used a High School/GLEE-ish concept. I'm sure most of you know how big that show has gotten... and it paid off.

Let me clear the air that we knew going into this that any contest there is always a greater chance for failure than winning, and we were and still ok with not placing. AND, we know as in design that anything for the masses is always subjective. It's a portfolio piece as well as a learning process as we get more into video production.
Some very good points were made and happy to accept them and we thank everyone for their feedback.
We will try again for this years Dorito's Crash the Superbowl contest and hopefully fair better. Much better global audience as well more money at stake.
- If you actually want to get into this stuff for real, stop taking part in crowd-sourcing contests.NONEIS
