Blogger Relations: It Takes Two



This video speaks for itself but I want to thank all those who bravely sent me their photos and videos even though I offered a very vague explanation of what I was doing: creating a video that promotes positive relationships between PR practitioners and bloggers.

Their mission?  To send me a video or picture of them dancing, or a photo that they want featured if they were in a hurry.

Danielle from Organic Public Relations was one of the first to respond, followed shortly thereafter by Liz from Wickedly Chic.  One of my colleagues, Laura, was a little bit weary of dancing on YouTube but was a good sport and rocked it out.  Nicole from SAHMReviews as well as Corrin from Oh Hey Whats Up both sent me video but apparently my Mac doesn't play nicely with their PC video output (I even upgraded to Quicktime Pro which helped for a few, but sadly, not theirs).

Janine from Twofer Mom and Linda from Short Pump Preppy both sent me videos as well.  I made Janine send me a second one because I told her she looked bored in the first one...turns out she was just trying to look like a tough rapper.  But as you'll see, she's not exactly pulling that look off (Sorry, Janine, you're just too darn cute!).

Tracy from Transforming Family sent me her picture as did Valeria from Conversation Agent.  Both women I know from Twitter.

Allison Worthington, Amy Bair and Jill Notkin from Blissfully Domestic and Resourceful Mommy, and Work At Home Mom respectively, took time from building their empires to send me photos.

Courtney from Giftfully Simple and Trisha from Mom Dot, I swear, both had a whole dance routine that she performed on video, it was hard to pick a favorite clip from each of their submissions because there was so much good footage!

However, the bravest of them all was the one guy, Matt Stratton, who sent a most candid photo of him dancing.

Thank you all for putting your trust in me for my mystery project.  I had so much fun putting it together (ask my husband as I made him watch it about a 100 times when I was splicing and dicing).

And don't forget.

It takes two.
