We're continuing to be very busy wrapping up over $30k in awards over the last couple months, and we're approaching the last of many selection announcements around these RFBs

So...here's the latest bunch...

SportsPundit has made both selections now, they previously awarded Kirsten Lepore the $3,000 top award for their video RFB. They have now announced that Beau Chevassus earned $1,000 for second place with his submission. Sports Pundit was looking for a video with viral potential and Beau's submission was bumped up the list when the client found an additional {unsubmitted} video that Beau produced around his first submission. This second video was already getting hits on Vimeo and can be seen in its entirety on the GeniusRocket homepage. You can see both selected submissions below in order of selection:

Creator: Kirsten Lepore
Earnings: $3,000

Creator: Beau Chevassus
Earnings: $1,000

Yes To Carrots came to the GeniusRocket community with some fairly specific ideas of what kind of video they wanted, and a very abbreviated timeline of under 10 days. We here at GeniusRocket & the client were thrilled with both the number of and the quality of the entries. While we always try to ensure sufficient time to conceptualize and create professional entries--but to see that our community was able to answer this RFB so successfully in such a short amount of time was great!! You can see the winning selections below:

Creator: JHBMW007
Earnings: $1,500

Creator: Daneboe
Earnings: $500

VisualCV came to GeniusRocket looking to expand their community...especially in the area of creative professionals, believing that creatives have a much greater need to display items (videos, animations, graphic designs, sketches, etc...) visually. In the end, after extensions and modifications, there were 13 unique submissions. The folks at VisualCV have selected David Jackson's CV--and had this to say about it:

"He's got a great VisualCV that combines awesome work product as well as a good overview of his skills and experience. It's a powerful combination."

David earned $750 for best overall CV and the additional 12 submitters will each receive $50 for participating!!

Thanks to everyone who participated in each of these RFBs, your submissions have continued to impress everyone here at GeniusRocket, and more importantly all of our clients! We're continuing to secure more work for ALL of you on the back of your submissions, so if you weren't selected this time keep looking for work and submitting!

We're still working with Aquafina & HubSpot on their selections, so please standby for those announcements in the coming week.

Thanks again, and congratulations to the selected creators!
The GeniusRocket Team
