Any chucklehead can shoot a video contest entry for a “fun” product like Doritos or Legos or Butterfingers. But it takes more than a little bit of talent to create a video that demonstrates your deep and enthusiastic love for a garage door opener. I looked at the listing for Genie Garage Door’s “Open Seasame” video contest and for me this topic rated about a 1 on the excitement scale. But I guess it pays to be passionate about weird stuff! Here’s the video that wound up winning the grand prize:
Open Sesame Winner. Prize: $5,000 + a new Genie garage door opener:
The guy who created that video is “Peter S. of Nashville, TN.” He’s a regular video contest filmmaker and it seems like I come across one of his winning entries once or twice a year. So Peter S, if you’re out there and reading this, congrats and keep up the good work.
