indeed they are.

needless to say, that's not how i'd envisioned it beforehand.

had to sit down because otherwise i had to keep bending over to reach the laptop.. which was annoying after the first 2 minutes:)

[rebekka78]

ill keep that in mind if i put up more clips. (too busy right now to have time to edit)

[rebekka78]

@eschipul: i fixed that.

(yes, the video quality is horrible, i'm uploading this mostly because i know some people were interested in seeing how this speech turned out)

i'm totaly nervous just by looking at the video. thats not my thing. so i'm glad to see that you did that well! :-)

that's very odd that they didn't give you a podium, were you suppose to pace up and down the stairs? ;) congrats on the lecture, seems like it went well.

Followed the link from your profile at Flicr. I work at an insurancecompany in sweden who work a lot with Toyota with traficsafety. We use a "Black Box" in their cars called CPR = Crash Pulse Recorder. I'm at You Tube only to performe my daughters singing. At Flicr I ADMIN two groups. Greatings from Dick Wåhlin

Well done on the add campaign Rebekka! Although I shoot mostly macro I admire your work and a lot of what I see other photographers doing with light I incorporate into the small world that I capture. I too have had many contacts via Flickr -some of my images will be a a book for elementary children in Singapore :)

Sincerely,

Dalantech

Rebbeka in addition to your expertise as a photographer and the benefit to the Toyota's Marketing Campaign. You as the model for the campaign is also a very big asset for Toyota as well. As a talent with expertise in photography,drawing,as a spokesperson, a model, film maker, Your ability to express feeling and emotion that you would be a fine actress as well. Wow,you even knit. Very enjoyable to look through the window into your world from "out here". Thank you for sharing yourself.

That is so exciting and cool. Somehow it never "clicked" with me that your photos were being used THAT widely; I was under the (mistaken) impression that they just used a couple shots for print adverts. I mainly just remember the night shot of the car. This is all just the beginning for you -- I have no doubt that a LOT of success (and adventure) lies ahead for you.

We use Flickr for completely different reasons Rebekka (there are as many as there are participants, but they do tend to a handful of types I think), and I think the way in which you have used it to support and complement your studies is admirable.

[squishband]

Rebekka, It's really heart-warming to see where your work has gone too and the things you have achieved.

I only heard a few icelandic people talking english, but your accent is remarkable nice. :) hope to see more from you, maybe here in youtube too.

Nice - this is such a wonderful advert for the way in which the user generated content movement can actually bring benefit to the user.
