Welcome to Week #4 of Steemit Talent Contest!

The idea behind Steemit Talent Contest is to create a community of Talented people here on Steemit and help people with exceptional talents get themselves out there and seen without having to go to extremes like entering X Factor! The extra bonus is you get to earn money from your posts just for entering thanks to this wonderful social media based blockchain that we all love called Steemit! Cant wait to receive your entries for this week. Lets see what you got! 😉

I'd like to thank everyone who entered the contest these past few weeks. It was a real pleasure watching all of your videos and getting to know you guys! If you missed last week heres the final entries post. The winner will be announced on Monday.
