I paid some guy on the internet $5 to dance to my music.
Here's the video he sent me.

Tempehtree on Fiverr will "dance weird and intense to any song HD for $5"

I did edit this video quite a bit, but the raw material was just him dancing in a room and it was pretty awesome.

Here's his Fiverr page, and here's more of my music.

I recorded the music as part of the RPM Challenge, which is an international creative challenge to record an album of original music in the month of February. I live in Newfoundland & Labrador, a Canadian province of around 500,000 people, where more than 780 albums have been created as part of the RPM since 2008. ...pretty crazy

Role: producer, editor

fun!

my girlfriend and I exchanged 8 days of fiverr gifts this past hannukah... only one of the 16 was a dud.

your video is hovering in the realm of Spike Jones music videos where you aren't sure if it's real or not... but it's funny no matter what.

When he takes off his hat and throws it with gusto is when I knew this was a great idea and a great Fiverr

That was $5 well spent.

I found this to be shockingly good, like "send it to someone" good, and a fantastic pairing.
