    I really like the winner,
    I’m a little bit surprised, because i really loved this one :
    http://vimeo.com/9028769
    and he’s not in this list, but it’s my personal view :)

    Potemkin

    Agree with Mathieu, Too Late ( http://vimeo.com/9104301 ) is deserve to be in list, but it’s personal view too :)

    Hey Nick,
    has been a great contest!

    Just a little question:
    are you a one man jury or are the ’sponsors’ or other involved?

    NEEEEEXXXXTT!

    Only three out of 5 of the honorable mentions are loading in my browser (Chrome) I’m missing the 1st and 5th. Congrats to the winner!

    I thought “Too Late” would win too. Really slick
