On February 8, Music Video Mania revisited RWC in the Student Lounge for the second year in a row. Prizes? Cash plus a chance for performers to make their own music videos. Contestants were judged by creativity in both costumes and presentation. Noah Waspe and Chad Watkins took home First Place and $125 for a fiery rendition of “The Devil Went Down To Georgia,” with Noah being type-cast as the devil.
Alexis Calloway, last year’s First Place Winner, walked away with Second Place, worth $75.
Ryan Butler and Tim Bentley temporarily switched genders to take the $50 Third Place with “I’ve Got You, Babe.”
A special prize was awarded to Michelle Nguyen for an authentically talented performance of “Unchained Melody.”
Judges were from the promoters of the contest, Karkut Entertainment Group out of Pennsylvania.
