When I started making the switch from NYC Salsa Dancer to NYC Photographer I found that I was equally intrigued by videography. One of the main reasons I loved video and film so much was that it catered to my self loving ways. If I film myself I can watch myself by myself when I miss myself.  :)
Anyway, that journey began nearly 5 years ago and I have been filming myself (Jai Catalano Youtube Page) ever since. Not surprisingly, once I got married and had kids, I added them in to the script so I could have my own personal video journal with my loving family and me together. Tissue please! 

So, when my wife reminded me that the Doritos - Crash the Super Bowl contest had been announced, it was a no brainer to exploit - I mean - include the kids. 
What a dumb idea that was. Putting those 2 penny pinchers in the video didn't make me a semi finalist. Do you know what that means? EXACTLY!!! I need new kids. Seriously though... when you have a moment I want you to go check out the 5 semi finalists who had better kids, dogs and ideas than me. 

Ok. I am done making jokes. 

Please click the Doritos website and show them some love and support. All 5 semi finalists put in a lot of hard work and with your vote someone will go home with a million dollar prize.

Thank you to everyone (especially my family) who supported me through this contest.  Your votes, calls, emails, texts, faxes, smoke signals (last one I swear) and overall energy made this process a very enjoyable one.

Until tomorrow.

Thank you. It was fun to be a part of even though I didn't win. Plus I now have great video of my kids.
