Scales Podcast – David Ung Video Contest Winners

July 24, 2017 By David Ung

Scales Splash Screen
Hey everyone! It’s time to announce the winners for the Scales x YoYoNews video contest! Thanks to everyone who submitted a video. It was great to see the different approaches for the contest and there was some great stuff submitted.
1st place goes to: Zach Gustafson! “Standoff” was beautifully filmed with great colors and use of angle changes. The premise is admittedly a little cheesy, but we play with yo-yos so I’m glad Zach took a lighthearted approach toward his submission. Plus, it made me laugh. Is there anything else you can really ask from a yo-yo video?
2nd place goes to: Daniel Predka! “The Lost Interlude” had some really gorgeous shots in the forest and really smooth tricks. Daniel had excellent use of slow-motion by pairing it with slower sections of the song. Overall I think it was maybe a little over-edited (really high contrast in some of the shots) but I thought it was a really complete package overall.
3rd place goes to: Wildan Furqon! “99% fun 1% skill” is also filmed in a forest (apparently I have a thing for yo-yo videos in forests). You can tell that the three players are all good friends and they have a good mix of tricks and styles. Plus they even threw in some 3A in there!

Please contact info@yoyonews.com and Steve will get you in touch with me so we can figure out shipping for the prizes.

Scales Podcast – David Ung Video Contest (Deadline Extended)

June 27, 2017 By David Ung

**DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JULY 3RD**

Hey guys, my interview with Keiran Cooper and Patrick Canny for the Scales podcast was just released! I had the pleasure of talking to them about how we used to share yo-yo tricks when I first started yo-yoing versus how we share them now. Listen to the episode below:

The main moral of the interview is: I miss yo-yo videos. Sharing tricks on Instagram through #trickcircle has a lot of pros… but there is something special about making an entire curated package in a trick clip video. So, I thought it would be fun to host a video contest to try and get a few more clip videos out there! So here are the rules…

1) All videos submitted must have the following splash screen at the beginning of the video for 5 seconds.

2) The minimum total duration for the video is 1 minute and 30 seconds.

3) Upload your video on YouTube with the following title format: “Scales Video Contest – name of video”

4) Submit your name, email, and a link to your video at the submission box at the bottom of this page.

5) The deadline for video submissions is Monday, June 26th, 2017 Monday, July 3rd. This gives you a little over a month to come up with a video idea, film, edit, and upload!

The guidelines for this contest are pretty open so that everyone entering has a lot of freedom in what kind of video they want to make. I will be judging all of the videos and choose my top 3. The top 3 will receive a ton of bragging rights and YoYoFactory and YoYoExpert were kind enough to put up some great prizes! The prizes are:

1st: YoYoFactory EDGE and an $80 YoYoExpert Gift Certificate

2nd: YoYoFactory Czech Point Pivot and a $50 YoYoExpert Gift Certificate

3rd: YoYoFactory Horizon and a $20 YoYoExpert Gift Certificate

Now get out there and go film! Thanks a ton to the Scales Collective, YoYoNews, YoYoFactory, and YoYoExpert for supporting the community and helping me put this contest together!
