antville Music Video Awards 2008

The Winners (say hi) !

From 2006 finalist to 2008 winner of Most Fun Video with The BPA's Toe Jam, and Director of the Year, Keith Schofield's parabola has been dizzying. Here's his take:

Wow, thanks Antville! I've been reading this site daily for years and it's really exciting to be recognized after toiling the music video world in obscurity for years. Most of my success in 2008 can be directly linked back to an antville posting of a no-budget video I did in Nov. 2007. That lead to a BUG screening, which lead to the Supergrass video, which lead to everything else.
There's a lot of people I'd like to thank for this award, including Jason Botkin, Alexa Haywod, Lanette Phillips, Tommy Labuda, Joceline Gabriel, Beth Montague, CJ & John Hassay, Carmen Montanez-Callan, Charlotte Neal, Steven Gottlieb and David Knight. And last but certainly not least, a big shout-out to AutoForm 2.1, which was the bot I used to create multiple antville accounts to ballot-stuff the polls.

Here's looking forward to 2009!

Thanks nerds.

Amazing: I sign my signature with hearts over the i's as well. I go for a pink outline around a silver pen, but to each his own...

Nice to have the winners responding. Thanks to Prog and all the participants.

I just watched the video again on Keith's website. Congrats! again. This is one of the most refreshing and memorable videos I've seen in years. Simple. Engaging. Fun. Bordering Brilliance. It does not hurt that I'm a fan of both Fatboy Slim and David Byrne.
