Ok folks, here are some more audition videos. I can’t believe the amount that poured in, it’s truly awesome. I’m currently “away”, staying with some friends and can’t even get proper cell phone reception here. Thankfully they’re geeks too so being online wasn’t an issue! This is just a random selection of videos I’ve pulled from the pile of hopefuls. I wanted to thank all of the people who have taken the effort to send in applications and videos, you’ve definitely made this hard for us. Enjoy!
More videos after the jump!
When will finalists be announced?
I’ve given Rachel my opinion/short list. We haven’t really been able to talk so I’m not sure. Hopefully they won’t be announced before I get home tomorrow! 🙂
Ahhh, exciting! I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little nervous!
I’d be lying if I said this wasn’t insanely hard! Simon Cowell, I am not.
All you need is a crew cut, a black v-neck shirt and the ability to make people cry! That’s not too hard, is it?
Good luck Alexis!

I definitely don’t want to make anyone cry.
A majority of us have had needles stuck into our skin in one form or another. One could say we have….thick skin?
That was bad, I’m sorry.
SO MANY GOOD CANDIDATES!
I’d hate to have to decided this
Oh my. Please pick me.
as an connoisseur and distributor of bad jokes…i salute your joke, molly.
Of the videos I’ve seen, there really have been some great applicants. I hope we get to see the videos of the winners!
I am terrified and excited to hear about the finalists! Ah, the suspense is making my belly all fluttery!
Hello fellow Molly!
Ditto! Will the finalists be emailed? Or will we just check back here and wait for a blog?
I dont know, I am buggin also. I am checking this thing religiously…. PLEASE PICK ME. Please… please..
Video #4 Internship fer sure! How radicals, she made me actually watch her whole video. The best so far! Cutecute yeh.
I watched the whole video of #4 too without even realizing, but i don’t feel like all she said was quite that relevant. It was a nice clip, but there was certainly a fair amount of “nonsense” there. Then again maybe it’s more important to get a picture of what the person’s like through the videos and leave the more specific stuff to the written form. But i’ve enjoyed watching these, can’t wait to hear the results.
There I am, awesome. 🙂
Good luck, everyone!
Oh God. Awkwardtown, population:me.
Good luck to everyone who entered!
I wish Timothy had edited my video!
I have to say I really enjoyed Timothys – He seems well-spoken, worldly, familiar with travel, about everything you’d be looking for in a writer
fourth one was my favorite! i usually dont watch whole videos but hers was great hah
I agree. The fourth one was the only one (of any so far) that has kept my attention
16 Linda, I agree with you there, but nonsense is radicals. Yeh that’s my opinion. If I were to judge this, I wouldn’t be very interested in learning what the auditioners eat for breakfast or if they have a dog. I’d be very interested in >how< they say it and their way with words however, and try to figure out their personalities. After all, I personally wouldn’t stand travelling the world with someone without a sense of humor. Ok it’s good to know if they have any exp in writing or holding a camera, but facial expressions will tell that. Yes!
lets just get my throat taTTOOED before anything else makes sense
Timothy seems to have his shit in check.
PS: I love the chops
#24. I did indeed get my throat tattooed before I finished my sleeves. Its a religious thing. Its a meditation mantra. Meant to be kept in your throat. It in no way affects my writing ability. Its even a bad ass tattoo besides.
GO BIG BROTHER! I love you Timothy!
Oh lawdy, that Megan girl is someone I would love to know… but I’m not sure her video was relevant to the internship.
Tons of great videos. I’ve just spent the last 2+ hours going through and watching all of them that I could find on YouTube.
If anyone else wants to do the same, I’m gathering them all here in a playlist: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=F151D74ABC4FE1C0
Jen, I’m amazed that you didn’t include this awesome audition in this post: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ez-sHYewzoU

When the time comes, young padawan……. When the time comes….
Haven’t seen mine on here yet.. Hopefully that’s not a bad sign haha!
V_V like tomorrow or something?
Modified Kansans REPRESENT!
Ed – I’ve literally just gone and randomly pulled links. We’ve had tons of applications. The ones I posted are not a reflection of how good we think they are, or how bad, or anything else, they’re just completely random selections.
Ari – Nope.
Jake – I’m sure Sean will have some posts for you soon. As I said previously, I was away all weekend, I only got home tonight and Rachel has asked me to post more audition videos for her, so sorry to be the bearer of bad news there but I haven’t got much time for anything else right now. I wish I did, but I don’t.
Ed – Ha, just saw what the video was. See, I already made a video for Rachel about why she should pick me but I made sure no one else saw it. 🙂
#4
