Now with 10% fewer hairballs!

I was cruising merrily along, planning on putting transplants into the ground, spending the weekend hoeing.  Then ArenaNet came along with a hairline wire and clotheslined me.

They’re holding a contest.  Never before have the forces of the universe coalesced for me so clearly.  Never before have so many things in my life aligned to point in one direction.

I’ve had plans for short, Guild Wars 2 fan videos for months now.  I was only waiting on the software to implement them.  Now that I have the opportunity to play with these packages ArenaNet is holding a contest.

A 1 minute video about why someone should play Guild Wars 2, delivered in 2 weeks.

One minute goes by fast when your talking or compiling someone else’s video.  When you’re animating, however, it’s an eternity.  That’s just what I’m going to do, however.  It’s a grueling pace, but it’s also a challenge I accept with relish.

Will I be talented enough to win the coveted trip out to Washington?  In a community like this, not likely.  However, this is one of those opportunities to better myself I spoke of in my previous post, and I’ll be damned if I’m going to let it slip through my fingers.

So, my fantastic readers….

See you in two weeks.
