Elf Yourself 2: Sometimes the Sequel Is Better Than The Original

One of the things that lots of people forget when they do viral is that sometimes it is better to improve on a concept than to start from scratch. Clearly the OfficeMax people haven't as their wildly popular Elf Yourself concept returns this year, this time powered with the animation and conceptual genius of the team at Jib Jab.

This year you get to customize five elves, and choose their dance. Your elves then boogie down,and proceed to dance in much funnier ways than in the original, not that last year's dancing was anything but a laugh and a half.

Here's the disco dance featuring my Sleepy Sleepington:

Naturally I could have customized all the elves, but since Sleepy has no equal I demured. Anyway, get on over to the site and start making your vids. You can also order schwag featuring your custom elves. What fun!

Thanks for reading, and don't forget to write.
