Similar to interigation, but not as creepy.

Video critiques

Jake Mehring
Slogan: Jake Bakes Cake!
He incorporated the slogan in a humerous way, and it worked well.
He used good skills in his video, it was entertaining. He had animations of moving text, and X's.
It said 29 seconds, but it was closer to 30.

Angela Johnson
Slogan: Silence the Violence, Increase the Peace
She incorporated her slogan with matching pictures, and fitting music. It was an ok video, but kind of simple--still pictures, music abruptly starting and stopping. It said 29 seconds, but it was closer to 30.

Will Biernat
Slogan: Simply Will
I couldn't really connect his slogan to the video theme;it didn't match all that well. It was well-made, though. He used moving pictures, fitting music, and varied text titles. It said 29 seconds, but it was really 30.

Jordan Pinneke
Slogan: It's a Speech Thing!
She incorporated the slogan in very well, almost excessively. The editing skills were good enough, but lacked some key things--moving pictures, fading text and audio. Good choice of music, though! The video was still entertaining. The video was 30 seconds long.

Tiger Woods: apology reaction

I'm personally not a fan of Tiger Woods. As for this apology, I'm not completely sold. He may be telling the truth, and he may not be. Is he really being honest? Only time will tell.
