Yo Gabba Gabba! and Memorex team up for Dancey Dance video contest

Turn on the tunes of Yo Gabba Gabba!, capture your child’s favorite moves on video, and your family could win a chance to dance with the cast of characters from the hit TV show. Yo Gabba Gabba!, created by Christian Jacobs and Scott Schultz and produced by The Magic Store and W!LDBRAIN Entertainment, has partnered with Memorex to celebrate the brand’s 50th birthday with a fun, family-friendly video contest.

The winner of the Dancey Dance Video Contest – selected by online voters – will be featured in Memorex’s Yo Gabba Gabba! It’s Time to Dance! Birthday Party, which will be broadcast live across the nation on UStream in September. Runners-up can also celebrate with prizes including their very own Memorex Party Kit, complete with the Yo Gabba Gabba! Birthday Boogie! video and the Memorex PartyCube™ Sound System.

“Memorex has been helping people create and keep lasting memories for fifty years,” said Jess Walton, director, global brand management. “From its beginnings of offering cassette tapes to today’s extended line of audio products and gaming accessories, Memorex remains a trusted brand that continues to bring families together, helping to create special WeTime family moments.”

The Memorex PartyCube Sound System is just the latest in a long line of feature-packed products from Memorex, including consumer electronics, and iPod and gaming accessories.
