The Application Video
In the video please introduce yourselves, explain what you're doing and why, and tell us anything else you want to about the founders or the project. The video should be one minute long. It can be in any format. Just email it to private@posterous.com, and Posterous will reply with a url you can put in the application form. The video should contain nothing except the founders talking. No screenshots or postproduction wizardry please; we don't want this to turn into a video making contest. If you're going to spend time making something cool, put it into your demo/product. Please do not recite a script written beforehand. Just talk spontaneously as you would to a friend. People delivering memorized speeches (or worse still, text read off the screen) usually come off as stupid. Unless you're a good enough actor to fake spontaneity, you lose more in the stilted delivery than you gain from a more polished message.
