I to am in Dallas. I'm not normally big into Flash websites, but I really like your splash page on your website!

Hey everyone! A guy I know is helping with this contest, so I thought I'd spread the word along. It is open to Canadian students enrolled part or full time in a college or university program, so if you know any qualifiers who might be interested in this pass it along!

I need help in selecting talent for an upcoming project.

It's a simple matter of looking at photos and a video of each of the 7 finalists and then choosing your single favorite and entering that into the poll on the webpage.

I could also use some FEMALE feedback as well, so if you know anyone from the "fairer" sex who'd be willing to share a woman's perspective that would be very helpful.

Once I get at least 50 people to respond I'll send out a link in email to the webpages setup specifically for this purpose.

Thanks to all who choose to help.

Do you have an estimated time commitment required to view the videos? IOW, or they shorts, or are they longer form features or documentaries?

Robert Lane · September 6th, 2010, 12:17 AM

The vids are of the auditioneers (is that even a word?) reading a very short script which lasts no more than a 2 mins. Well, technically the script would have been no more than 45 seconds but because all of the women who were tested do not have on-camera experience they all took longer - and did multiple reads so they could get comfortable with the process.

It shouldn't take but 5 minutes or so for the average person to look at the pics and vids and get a gut-level reaction - which is exactly what I'm looking for as feedback. I don't need a thorough, critical review of their performance, just an instinctive "This one did the best..." type of response.

You can tell within seconds if someone is appealing to you - or not - on whatever level is important to you, so that's all that I need.

Jonathan Jones · September 6th, 2010, 12:25 AM

Cool deal. I'm game if you still need folks. I'll send you an email.
