Dark Horse & Buffyfest are Hosting a Contest! #MyBuffyLife


We're very excited! The fine people at Dark Horse have teamed up with yours truly to give away some truly fab prizes in honor of Buffy Season 9. The general gist is, you make videos, we get to hoot, holler or cry about them and then choose the top 10 finalists! Super Scott Allie and Sierra Hahn get final say in who wins the top spot, however, so don't bother trying to bribe us with that signed stake from Season 3 or Boreano's gum that you bought on eBay or whatever...

Here's how it works: You'll jump over to the Dark Horse YouTube page and check out the Buffy Season 9 Trailer. Then you'll record a video response and post it as a video response to the Trailer there on YouTube. You can talk about Season 9, Season 8, Buffy in General; make a commercial for Buffy Season 9, a Music Video, a Buffy comedy sketch...or any other idea that takes your fancy. Buffyfest will choose 10 finalists from all entries and Editors Scott Allie and Sierra Hahn will choose One (1) winner with the most engaging video. Dark horse will then give that winner the following:

1. Full Set of the Buffy Season 8 trade-paperbacks
2. Hardcover of Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Tales
3. A Buffy the Vampire Slayer Lunch box. Cute!
4. *newly added* A Signed copy of Buffy Season 9 #1 25th Anniversary cover from Georges Jeanty
5. *newly added* And a signed Buffy/Angel & Faith Trifold - signed by Joss Whedon, Andrew Chambliss, and Jo Chen
6. 7 foot tall amazing Buffy Banner.

This contest runs until 10/16/11, so if you want the prize, better get vidding!

1. Each entry must be a video response posted to the YouTube page for the Buffy Season 9 Trailer.
2. Each entry must show the cover of Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 9 #1, at least briefly. - Cover 1, Cover 2, Cover 3

That was great, Skytteflickan! Very personal and endearing. Your lovely accent added some flair to it as well. Make sure you post it as a video response on Dark Horse's Youtube or it won't count! If after you do that it doesn't show up right away don't worry, they just need some time to approve it.

Good luck!

Thank you, that's so sweet of you. I was very nervous about my accent.

We have added the video as a response and are waiting for approval.
