I may be able to eat this month!


Congratulations all, and thank you Muvipix for all that you guys do!

[Paul LS]

Yes, Congratulations to all, some great entries.

[momoffduty]

Congrats to all of the winners! Got some great ideas from all of the entries, have to view a few more times. Two years ago I wouldn't have dreamed of even placing. When I first came to Muvipix I didn't know anything about video editing and about the same for computers. Appreciate everyone's help along the way and ideas.

I want to give Dick a special congratulations, your entry was very moving. Your entry would make a great marketing piece for Premiere!

[munickster]

Oh, wow. Thank you!! I really didn't see this coming at all - there were so many great entries this year, all of which were long ago downloaded to my 'ideas' folder. I will be unashamedly stealing ideas from all of them very soon.

Thank you again - it really is an honor to be selected out of such a great bunch of entries! Congratulations to everybody that entered, and thanks to everyone here for all of the free advice over the last couple of years.

Congratulations to all!

I hope one day to be able enter a video which has a chance to compete with the great work you folks showcase here.

[munickster]

Congratulations Dick, you now need to select your prize

Oops. I was so stunned that that part slipped right past me.
Since I still don't own a camcorder, I would like that prize. The HV40 price is coming down at B&H so I could use the $600 towards that.

AE I have been saving my pocket change for about a year now for AE and thought it would be version CS12 before I had enough. Thanks Dick! Have to get my RN daughter over here, having heart problems.

[Chuck Engels]

Well I think everyone is really happy so far

Ok Tiny, your turn

What does my height have to do with this?

[tiny]

While I've always been eying those cool tablets, and I covet the abilities of Audition for my audio needs, I don't think I can pass on the gift card at this time, as I only have $31 to my name for the rest of the month. :P

The Amazon Gift Card: $100 USD

Thanks
