“I was very pleased to learn that my work was a success, especially when so many wonderful photos were submitted,” Jensen said in the statement.
“The publicity I’ve received for my film in recent months has been incredible. It’s a very good feeling to know that your film makes people around the world laugh, as well as to support some worthy security reasons. Pain.”
This year the competition will donate 10% of its total net income to Save Wild Orangutans, which works to protect wild orangutans in Kunung Palung National Park in Borneo.
