I remembered that we had a left-over slab of Red Bull from the launch this week, so on-air we announced a wee video competition for the weekend.

To be in the running to win the slab of Red Bull (24 cans! see the pic below) all you have to do is create or mash a video that at some point mentions the word ‘Active’; upload it to Mash Pit Comedy before 12noon Monday (14/09/09); and when you upload it, tag it with the word ‘Active’.

    George, Caffeine and Aspirin host on Active, will judge the winning video on Monday. Her tip for the winner: make her laugh. Easy!

    The slab of Red Bull you can win!

Pop along if you’re down this way.

    Launch Party details

    We’ve rigged up a Half Joke Booth at the party, so you can record half jokes, half gags, half dances, half funny faces … anything that’s half-way funny … and we’ll upload them to the Half Joke Booth profile page on the site. We’re recording the madness against a green-screen so anyone can mash the clips up and place the people anywhere in a new video. Mashtastic.

    Check out the clips live on the site tomorrow on this profile page:
