Naked Cheese (updated!)

June 30, 2008

Naked cheese video. See explanation below. This explanation will be deleted in 24 hours.

A PROFOUND apology to WillVideoForFood readers. The idea of a pure cheese video was spawned from this post about 3 rules of viral video. I got a “dare you to make a video about cheese” note from a regular WVFF contributor who wasn’t aware of the full thread (see it here)… which called for a coordinated cheese-only video campaign.

I was tickled by the simple challenge of posting a vide simply showing a piece of cheese being opened. But if there’s one thing funnier than a random video about cheese… it’s a bunch of them.

So although I’ve inadvertently jumped the gun on the campaign, we must continue this cause. It’s our duty. I could easily take this video down if people need more time. But it will only take a minute for you to upload your cheese video, and 99% of people won’t know about the time lag.

PLEASE? And post it below. This text will be deleted shortly.

2 xjasongarciax June 30, 2008 at 7:45 am: I love the “thump” noise your fingers make as you lay it on the counter. Nalts, seriously…I’m scaring myself with this one!

No “High Quality” option…shame on you! )
3 xjasongarciax June 30, 2008 at 7:47 am: Oh yeah, please do me a favor buddy…change your icon…I hate that damn pic! It gives me the creeps…I can’t even pan down on this damn blog right now!

Thanks!

5 Marilyn June 30, 2008 at 8:14 am: I thought we decided the cheese videos would go up NEXT Saturday; you trying to get a jump on all of us Nalts? Can’t you let your blog-lets have their own moment in the sun?
6 Marilyn June 30, 2008 at 8:22 am: For those of you who liked sukatra’s idea about posting to a cheese blog, here are some that I found:

7 JimmerSD June 30, 2008 at 8:27 am: Mine is up. Had to do a spur of the moment thing to try to keep up.
8 sukatra June 30, 2008 at 8:28 am: I can’t wait til marquis sees this. I hope he bites you in the butt. Literally.

Hope you got your tetanus shot!
9 Reubnick June 30, 2008 at 9:12 am: Wow, it’s the next viral video hit. Get ready for the next round of interviews, Nalts.

Tay Zonday, eat your heart out.
10 Nalts June 30, 2008 at 10:14 am: Oh shit. Have I been totally punked? Oh shit. I have been punked. YOU KNOW WHO… you are so busted.
11 Nalts June 30, 2008 at 10:18 am: Oh this is making me crazy. No practical jokes unless I’m IN on them. BTW- Jason. Will change the face. It freaks me out too. It got 100K views, though, so something’s magical about it. The high quality option doesn’t appear until the video has been up for a while.
12 JimmerSD June 30, 2008 at 10:26 am: I think the idea was for everyone to post at or about the same time. I just threw something up. I thought everyone would scramble to do something since Nalts let the cat out of the bag. Ooops. Guess not. Funny thing is I only go 18 hits and 0 stars so far. Serves me right.
13 JimmerSD June 30, 2008 at 10:29 am: Oh yeah Kevin please take that creepy video with the TITS out of the Video Responses que. Yeesh.
14 sukatra June 30, 2008 at 12:01 pm: Somebody went off the reservation. I know who you are. Better watch your back.
15 Nalts June 30, 2008 at 12:29 pm: I GOT PWNED!
16 Reubnick June 30, 2008 at 1:11 pm: Wait a minute, wait a minute, WAIT A MINUTE! What is going on here!?! I don’t understand any of this cheese business! How did Nalts get pwned? Should I upload some cheese? I need some answers around here!!!
17 sukatra June 30, 2008 at 1:33 pm: I think we all pwned each other. This is hilarious.
18 XLr8nIT June 30, 2008 at 1:38 pm: Just sell your vid to these guys…LOL

27 jischinger June 30, 2008 at 5:49 pm: Peau de soie prêt-à-porter, fromage par excellence! I just wrote a lengthy letter to the Jurie Caan Festival de film and asked them to consider all these petit-cheez-its for the Palme d’Or! They replied immediately to my request and asked if there might also be a little whine with the cheese…

btw, what the hell is a pizzle sore feltch and what does it do?
do I even want to know?
28 NutCheese June 30, 2008 at 6:51 pm: Mine too!!!

29 Marilyn June 30, 2008 at 7:52 pm: Is it ok if I do mine tomorrow? I am way too tired to video and upload tonight.
30 sukatra June 30, 2008 at 7:57 pm: lightweight!!!!
31 sukatra June 30, 2008 at 8:36 pm: my video is not showing up in anybody’s related videos. But perhaps that’s because I named it “Banana Hammock.”
32 Babysitterofnalts June 30, 2008 at 11:41 pm: MINE IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN ALL OF YOURS!

BAM!
33 sdavis54 July 1, 2008 at 1:28 am: I want to make a cheese video (considering I live in Wisconsin) and be part of the group, but I seem to be in the middle of a terrible case of creator’s block.

We’ll see though.
34 sukatra July 1, 2008 at 3:01 am: Are we stil gonna send all these videos to one of the cheese bloggers marilyn found? Nalts, it won’t work unless you do it too.
35 JimmerSD July 1, 2008 at 5:24 am: This whole thing begs the question. Is the “Cheese Series” actually stealth marketing for WVFF? Just a foggy headed morning thought.
36 jischinger July 1, 2008 at 10:40 am: when you think cheese think of Nalts
