Farmers Get Crackin' with Wonderful Pistachios Commercial

Although this video was a top 10 finalist - we decided to turn down the runner-up prize. We forfeited our winnings because we truly believe in the value of our creative.

We plan to re-shoot this concept for another brand. In the meantime, due to popular demand we have decided to repost this edit.

wait so y did u forfeit

@kkevink01 Hey. We decided that the value of our creative was more than the runner up prize. The amount of hours we put into the video would make the payout a fraction of minimum wage. We were happy to hear our prize money and pistachios were donated. They understood our stance and I still love the pistachios. Cheers.

It looks like the whole voting thing didn't really work. There was no movement at all in the supposed winning line-up for more than a week after one video moved up 8 places overnight. Surely there would have been some change in the order if votes were being counted. And the moderator disappeared after announcing the fixed vote accusations. Please help us by asking Wonderful Pistachios to pick the BEST video and keep it a video contest, not a clicking contest. Thanks, Hopeful

You deserve to win but their are plenty of opportunities with talent such as yours. With any product people use or enjoy you are the perfect person and have a great work ethic, I'm sure. So anyways...I hope you liked my partial dedication to your video....anyways...it has a commercial and farmer theme to it....I really hope you win but more than that...these contests are skewed...and I really think if we put our heads together you could come out the overall winner in this contest!
