Hey, you!

I’ve got a project for you.

I promise it won’t take much of your time or effort.

Just 4 minutes and 59 seconds, and the click of a mouse.

That’s it. No biggie.

But the payout is a pretty big deal for these kids.

These so-called “kids” that I refer to are not really kids at all.

They’re hard-working lighting students at the University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music.

And they went all out designing, producing, and filming this really clever video

– all while attending classes full-time and keeping up with a highly demanding production schedule –

for a contest to win their school a new ETC (Electronic Theatre Controls) lighting console.

Those suckers aren’t cheap. And they could really use a new one!

I think you’ll be very impressed, as I was, with the quality and professionalism of their work.

It’s clear these kids put forth the effort and really want to win this thing for their school.

Each video will be judged according to its “ETC-ness” – enthusiasm, talent, and creativity.

None of which they are lacking.

Their work speaks for itself and whoops the socks off of the competition.

They did a TON of work to make this happen.

Alas, in an unfortunate turn of events, these guys had a slew of well-deserved votes…

…until the vote counter was accidentally reset during a website glitch.

The company has promised to add those lost votes back onto their tally total at the end of the contest…

…but still.

It’s disheartening for them to see a lackluster counter-number.

(and who knows how many votes were really lost?)

Their video exemplified “ETC-ness” to a T and really went above and beyond.

So, what can YOU do to help?

I’m glad you asked!

You can go HERE,

Watch their rockin’ video (I promise it’s entertaining and really informative – you’ll like it!)

And, most importantly,

Click the “like” button below the video to vote for them!

Let’s get those boys back where they belong – at the top!

So be a good sport and click “like” to vote for College-Conservatory of Music.

Thank you!

Now don’t you feel better for getting that weekly good deed out of the way?

If you have a blog or a FaceBook, be a pal and pass this on!!

(P.S. The guy’s face that they Pixelmapped is Fred Foster – the founder of ETC. Those clever kids!)
