Lipstick Needs Your Vote!


Help!

I've entered a contest with OUTtv called Hot Pink Shorts where two filmmakers will be selected to have their short film made. (For those that don't know, a short film is between 5 - 7 minutes.)

For the two lucky winners, in addition to having your short film funded and help with producing, the whole creative process (from pre-production to post) will be captured on film and made into a documentary for OUTtv (the Canadian equivalent to Logo in the US).

I've come up with an idea for a short film called 'Til Death Do Us Toby. For the contest, I've produced a short video pitch for their site. The contest is based on votes from viewers (like or dislike), so I need your help!

I'll forever be grateful if you'll:

1) Go to Hot Pink Shorts Website
2) Click on "The Pitches"
3) Join the community (you’ll have to wait to be approved, which will come via email and pretty quickly—check your spam folders)
4) Watch my short pitch--'Til Death Do Us Toby
5) Click on the "Like" button and make a comment (if you like my pitch, that is)

You can see the pitches under Contest/The Pitches.

It's super easy to do and the contest closes next Monday (March 15), so I really need all the help I can get as I'm joining late in game.

Can you PLEASE help a girl out?

Also, if you have an idea for a short film, it's not too late to get your pitch in!

Thanks in advance for those who want to support me!

For All You Cat Lovers...

Since we're all a little depressed around here that the Olympic party is over, I thought we could all use a little humor.

This is one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time...

Make sure you read the subtitles.

For the laughter, you're welcome.

Oh CANADA!




What an ending to the Winter Games last night, eh? As you could imagine, Vancouver went BERZERK when the Canadians snatched the gold medal in an overtime nail-biter against USA. And we were right there in the thick of it!

We started the day with a pot of chill and good friends who came over to watch the game. After the big overtime finale, we immediately hopped a cab downtown.

Our cowbells never worked so hard as they did last night on Granville Street, where we ran through the street hooting and hollering. I've never slapped so many hands, catcalled to more strangers and laughed so joyously as I did last night in downtown Vancouver, BC.

To top it off, it was a beautiful night in BC, too. The stars were out, so was the moon, and so were hundreds of thousands of crazy Canadian fans.

We ended the night at the PourHouse in Gastown for a late bite. It was the perfect ending to a fabulous, enormously memorable day.

I wish so much I could've somehow bottled up the energy of downtown last night and shared it here with you. I took some video, but you know how those never do any justice.

I wrote a while back that I thought we'd be glad to see the Olympics go, as it was really beginning to cramp our style--city-wise. But now I don't feel that way at all and neither does anyone else I've talked to. Maybe it's because we won yesterday, maybe it's because we had more gold medals than any other country. Or maybe, just maybe, there is some real magic and weight behind the old Olympic spirit.

MORE COWBELL!
