I think the Breaking Benjamin video won Best Editing since I saw the video at the Masquerade after they showed the winner for Best Drama.

... Okay, I cannot remember the last time I saw an audience vote select a drama video (or anything non-comedy, really) for a Best In Show.

Wow. The fact that there were even 7 people to vote mine for Best in Show is such a compliment to me. The audience's screams after my video played were overwhelming. Even though I wasn't that close to winning the category, it was a great feeling to know that my video was so well received. It reminds me why I started editing in the first place :-D

Congrats to all the winners! It was a great contest this year!!! |:>
