It’s time for another contest – this time with some truly amazing prizes! There will be three winners, and I will start by telling you about the goodies, which will be generously donated by tokidoki themselves.
FIRST PLACE PRIZE: a limited edition tokidoki for Mikasa soccer ball (only 1,000 of these balls are being made) and the THREE newest tokidoki skate decks.

SECOND PLACE PRIZE: a limited edition tokidoki for Mikasa soccer ball and a signed poster.
THIRD PLACE PRIZE: a limited edition tokidoki for Mikasa soccer ball.
So what do you need to do to enter? Create either a YouTube video* or a photograph** that explains what you would do with the tokidoki soccer ball if you win one. The top 3 most creative videos/photos will win the prizes listed above. Comment on this post to let me know that you plan to enter, and then submit your entries via e-mail to tokidokiblog@gmail.com. I will then forward the entries on to tokidoki, who will be judging the contest.
If you’re feeling a little creatively challenged, I’ll start you off with an idea: your entry could for instance show a unique way that you would put the ball on display in your home.
The deadline for entries is Thursday, June 26th at 11:59pm EST. Winners will be announced on Friday, June 27th as soon as tokidoki sends me the results.
*Need to know how to make a YouTube video? Learn how here!
**Each person’s submission(s) will count collectively as a single entry, but there is no limit to the number of uses for the ball that you may think up. If this means sending in multiple photos or videos then by all means go for it.
We can only make it one way of what we would do with the ball? Or can we show off many ways of what we can do with the ball?
Each person’s submission(s) will count as a single entry, but there is no limit to the number of uses for the ball that you may think up – if you can think of many uses for it, then by all means show all of them off!
Ohh!! ^____^! I am so excited for this!
Also there’s no video time limit is there? Or is it the Youtube time limit (which I think is 10 minutes..)
Awesome! I think it is exciting too!
For the videos, the maximum time limit is indeed the YouTube limit of 10 minutes. However from a judge’s perspective, shorter is better because I’m sure there will be quite a few to watch… 10 minutes x 100 videos = nearly 17 hours of videos. Try to keep the length down to a minute or two unless your content is absolutely riveting.
Stephanie, you can count me in!
I have a really good idea for the video!
Just need to figure out when I have the time to do it.
To clarify, you want us to post it on YouTube first, and then send you the link?
Jamie – Yes indeed!
i’m definitely entering! all i need now is a camera man…
i’ve recruited my kids because they want the goodies just as much as i do!!
hmmm interesting ^^what to do what to do….
I’d like to enter. Pending creativity and time.
Whats the likelihood of a photo winning? Because I would like to send a photo!
Ed – Go for it! The most awesome video OR photo will win.
[...] tokidoki blog is having its biggest contest ever. tokidoki is sponsoring the event, which will have three winners. All you need is some creativity [...]
I’ll be entering =]
I think I am going to don my Mozzarella costume and make a video for this
^^^ Eeeee I love it!! I am sure your video will be awesome!!
I’m gonna enter!
OMG love this!!! can’t wait =)
Count me in!
Could be good to see all proposal in this post.
Just wondering…does it have to be about what you would do with the ball or can it just be a video that has to do with the ball? Thanks!
Question—can the picture be photomanipulated a bit? :]
lyssa – It has to be about what you would do with the ball.
Shuu – Sure!
I would love to do something =D
I just submitted my entry already to you just now….. I hope you like it….. I assume there is no limit on how many pictures you can send in is there…..I ask this because I definitely have more then one idea…. Check your mailbox for my entry….. I wonder if I was the firrst to submit one……
Ok I am going for it. It doesn’t hurt trying it out that way If I loose I can say atleast I tried ^_^. I hope everyone has fun with this!!
Don – I got your entry (yes it was the first), and it is FANTASTIC! I love it! You can submit as many others as you like too (but, they will all count as a single entry for yourself).
hey steph, would be possible to see the other entries and/or their links? i know the vids are on YouTube, but direct links would help ‘cuz there’s tons of Toki vids. we can root for each other and make comments!
..0_o
so basically are we suppose to make a vid/photo using any plain ball?
….like a video of someone playing with a ball or something?
mmm….
GOOOAAAALLLL!! I’m going to be entering ^____^
so could i make a photo collage that is a youtube video?
I will be entering!
tokidoki-blog – I think you should add in the post that we can submit multiple photographs (and obviously only be eligible to win once). I’ve been thinking for a while now about which of my ideas to use but it’s a relief now that I can execute more than one!
Just a friendly suggestion!
Can we send in video in addition to our photograph(s)?
Hypothetically, can we send in multiple videos?
Tara d. – Let me consider that… I might want to wait until next Friday.
keely – The objective is to make a video or take a photo of what you would do with the tokidoki soccer ball if you won it. If that involves using a plain ball, that’s totally cool, but no ball is required. You can also Photoshop a picture of the tokidoki ball in if you wish.
Joslyn – Yes, if you wish.
Krisha – I will edit the OP with the multiple photos info. As far as sending in multiple entries goes, use your judgment. A single spectacular entry is better than 10 so-so entries, but if you have a bunch of spectacular ones and can’t decide which to use, then by all means send everything. Don for instance has already sent in quite a few great ones.
I’m planning to enter the contest. I’ll do my every best. ^_^
I’ll be entering
I’ll be entering
I’ve already thought of a few really good ideas. I have a question though, when does the contest end?
Sorry scratch the ending part, I misread D:
Good luck to everyone!
with those prizes, i have to enter! count me in!
[...] a reminder that we are at the halfway point for submitting contest entries – make sure to get them in by Thursday, June 26th at 11:59pm [...]
Tokidoki Blog – How are you going to judge if someone enters more than one video/photo to make it fair to people who enter just one???
TJ – “Each person’s submission(s) will count collectively as a single entry.” And of course, quality will win over quantity.
ok thanks
Is anyone having problems with YouTube?
i’m entering the contest! i just sent my entry in
