Using Yoostar 2 for the Kinect and a scene from Super 8, Cynthia Bell of Charlotte North Carolina, was able to reinvent a 1-minute scene from the summer’s science fiction blockbuster and turn it into $50,000. Thousands of entries were submitted into the Acting With the Stars contest, but the grand prize winner stood out from the crowd with her unique comedic performance.

“My whole family loves to perform and be creative and Yoostar gives us the opportunity to do both in a very cool and fun way,” said Cynthia Bell, Acting With the Stars Grand Prize Winner. “Many thanks to Yoostar for a great game and wonderful prize!”

Nicholas Reichenbach, Chief Content Officer, Yoostar Entertainment Group added, “Cynthia did an amazing job reimagining the scene and delivering a fun performance. It’s contributions like this that make Yoostar Social an incredibly fun place to view, share, rate and award user-generated content created in the Yoostar universe.”

The eight week contest, Acting With the Stars, ran from June 1 – July 26, 2011 and awarded a total of $58,000 in prize money for the best interpretations of scenes taken from this summer’s biggest blockbuster movies including Fast Five, Bridesmaids, Thor, Kung Fu Panda 2, Super 8, Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon and Captain America.

Yoostar 2 is currently available at all leading retail outlets throughout North America.
