OK, I probably annoyed the hell out of many people with this topic, but my pixel video for DJ Shadow has reached the final stage of the competition, and it has a real chance to win. That means that if it wins it'll be the official video for "This Time" the song, and will be in rotation on MTV and other music channels etc..The voting will run till next wednesday.
If you'd like to have a look at the video, here it is:

If you like the video you can vote for it here:

NOTE that you must register on that site and enter some personal info to vote, so if that throws you off, I let you know.
That's it, thanks for your time guys.

Thanks very much guys.
The whole support and approval by many great people @ PJ of what I do, the video, or just any other pixels, that's really something. Something that keeps me inspired. Thanks again :)

LATEST UPDATE.
OK now it's official. I just got this email from Universal Music.
..Dear Mykola,
Congratulations! You are the winner of the DJ Shadow – This Time video competition! Your video will now be used as the official promo video for the new single... What this basically means is:
1. I, a huge DJ Shadow fan and MTV fanboy, found out about the DJ Shgadow video contest two weeks before deadline.
2. Worked as a muhf**ka for the following two weeks, inspired as never before. This was my FIRST ever attempt at a music video. Or any video at all.
3. My video won the contest.
4. I made a GODDAMN video for DJ Shadow in two weeks with my first ever attempt and it'll be on all the music channels!
That's pretty much the summary. Can't really grip on reality right now :D
HUGE THANKS to all the people at PJ who supported me with this, who voted for me, who encouraged me, to every single one of you.

Thanks once again guys, pixelblink, Skull, Jal, I appreciate it :)
@Aleiav: read the video description and comments carefully, it has all the info on what you must do to watch it on a mac.
@Jal: yup, it really is 100% drawn from scratch pixelart, repping the PJ community :) I'm glad I could pull it off like that :)
