Act Like Odyssey Contest!

Whit's wiping down the counter, Connie's mopping the floor, and the kids are sipping on their milkshakes. If you want to talk about Adventures in Odyssey the radio drama, this is the spot to do just that!

That means that the contest is being run by Focus employees in the United States (as opposed to FOTF Canada or other international branches being involved and accepting entries too). If they weren't accepting entries from outside the United States, it would be clearly stated in the Eligibility section. :)

Does this mean that there is still time to enter and if so does the pakage have to arive by march 31 or be post marked for March 31.

Wow, both were terrific! Watching those was such a treat. I hope we get to see more than just the 10 finalists since AIO fans everywhere are apparently oozing creative juices.

Thanks for the link, H Tide!

Postmarked by March 31. :)

In related news, my entry is packaged and ready to mail! \:D/ Who would've thought that my most time-consuming project in this week before spring break wouldn't even be school-related? ;)

Yay! \:D/ My sister and I just finished filming ours! (and I can't feel my hands to type...it was cold outside) Due to the fact that we have no amazing technical skills ( :anxious: ) we had to get it all in one take. We don't really expect to win, but we had fun and figured we couldn't pass up an AIO contest with no age limit (especially if we would like to see more of them in the future). :D

Now we just have to:
-choose the best take
-burn a DVD
-finish the paperwork
-get it in the mail tomorrow

She left many of us behind. She left us heartbroken. And though we cry now there'll come a time when we'll laugh. Because we'll see her again someday. We'll be with her in heaven. And when we go to heaven she'll be there to greet us. She'll be there to say "Welcome home." -From a poem that SnC wrote about her grandmother

It's not from "Act Like Odyssey", but form the same one who made the Ancient World Of Sports one H Tide posted. :P I'm relishing in the ones I can see... I can't wait to see what gets in after tomorrow. I would never have had the talent to do something like this... wishing, but definitely know my own limits. Very exciting though!

EDIT:

This one is hysterical!

PS: Is it okay to do this? I mean... hmm... they did put them on youtube... I love all the creativity though.

While I did end up filming part of the scene, my brother and I ended up being too busy to film the rest to send it in time. :( Plus, he wasn't too thrilled about having to act.

Here is the link to the one that me, GX and our sister made: http://www.zshare.net/video/745308900561604a/

Believe it or not, I played Harlow. When my mom watched it, she said it looked like I was lip syncing. GX played Wooton, and our sister played Connie.

Entries are popping up on youtube. Just search for "Act like Odyssey contest" or "Adventures in Odyssey Contest" on youtube and you'll see more results. I really like the Jeremy Cartwood one (2nd link DAM posted). This Aloha Oy! entry is also very well done!

Mr.Whit and others-- I look forward to seeing your videos! :)
