You want to talk about what is new and innovative in recruiting?

This is.  Studio Smackdown 2....sounds like fun, huh? From the folks at Aquent (with a little support from Adobe), motion graphics designers battle a' la The Apprentice and you get to vote online. You can review participant bios and portfolios online (and of course, there's a button for you to contact Aquent if you want to hire one of them...smart!).  

Bravo, guys! Makes me wonder what the heck I was doing during Studio Smackdown 1. Don't worry, I promise not to recap ; )
