Well! Here goes nothing!
The Insomnia Film Festival is a cinematography contest in which Apple posts a list of "requirements" at 6am PST, and all participants have 24 hours to write, film, edit, post-produce, and submit an entry. It's intense. But soooooo much fun. I have never worked on something for 23.5 hours straight before!
Anyway, here's our entry (http://edcommunity.apple.com/insomnia_fall07/item.php?itemID=1374) on the Apple Insomnia site. You can vote for us if you like, (You'll need to create an Apple account, but that's it!) We worked our collective butts off, and in the process, managed to make something that I have watched many times over. All music, (except for a few sound effects, such as when the Intern gets strangled) was written by us, one track even was written during the 24 hours. Most of the Sound Effects were designed by us during the 24-hour period.
Oh, and sometimes the Apple site doesn't work, so you can also see it at youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAqZ-eqer3c). Voting there does not count, however. :P But there is a transcript, in case you really want to know what we're saying.... :P
Hope you all enjoy!

Very awesome. The intro where the dude face throws the guy away from him had me laughing.
When I have the time I'll vote for you. Just need to get an apple account.

Woh! Real nice movie!! :D
That precisely looks like my friday at work! Though I don't do words, but PHP code... (a little less faster as well ;) ).
That reminds me of the Webdesign Festival I participated in. 24h non-stop to create an innovative web interactive environment.

Thanks very much, both of you!
Yes, the main annoyance with voting is that everyone must have an AppleID, which is quite unfortunate, as registration is something that few people long to do. :P (We still encourage you to vote, however..... ;) )
I'm glad you both liked it. And yes, 24-hour sprints are a necessary experience of life.

That's a really cool video. Good job!

Haha, that was great! I really like the idea of a guy who's like a total cubicle ninja. Well executed. O0
