Well I haven't been in a fest in about a year, and I have to say, you guys are getting this down to a science.

Thanks for the great efforts, Barry, Larry, Jason, Mikko...who else?

LoveFest peeps, post your praises here!!!

Yes, but thanks again! It can never be said enough. The forum rules and some of the Members ain't half bad either. :thumbsup:

Cheers and good luck to all.

Thank you so much for the opportunity. This really kicked off the year for me, and I hope to keep the momentum going.

I cant imagine how much goes on behind the scenes to make things happen as organized as they are.

Definitely a HUGE thanks. This fest seems to be the most organized yet. :beer:

Or, perhaps, Blaine it seems that way because this is the first fest when WE are semi-organized! You probably saw things differently when you were shooting stuff a couple hours before deadline and compressing files at midnight!

Thanks for getting my off my couch and actually doing something!

You Mods are all grade A, no doubt.

Thanks for making this event so enjoyable. Your hard work on the technical side of things made it so easy for a festival newbie like me. And thanks for patiently handling questions along the way. I think you've spoiled me for what to expect from outside festivals.

This has been such a great experience for the FM crew. Got to work with some cool dvxusers (Geoff, Matty, Luis, Amanda, Justin, Blaine, Kholi) and also some really cool non-dvxusers. We've learned a lot and can't wait to watch every entry.

Big up to both Barrys, Mikko, Jason, Jarred, Luis, Larry.

I just want to say thanks to all the members, and everyone who is participating in this fest. Was a strong turnout this time, and a real strong sponsor turn out as well, and hopefully things will continue to get bigger and better, and more and more streamlined, professional and all that stuff moving forward.

It's the members that really make the fests great... and put the fest mods on their toes to make things better and to be able to handle the increased load and demand with each fest.

THANKS DVXUSER MEMBERS.

Later,
Jason

Fantastic job on the turnout too. What'd we get, over 50 entries? That's amazing. We thought when we announced the fest theme that some people might grumble and gripe and not participate if it wasn't a sci-fest or horrorfest, but hey, Barry_S chose this and I think it's always great to see the filmmakers stretch and grow. And you guys responded big-time: 50 entries! Awesome. Looking forward to when the viewing begins!

I'm not competing this time around, but as always, the team did a great job! I think of all the hours each of these guys puts in, and for Larry's work on getting this system so smooth! And he tells me he wants to make it even easier! How's that for commitment?! You guys rock!

I really thought there would be 35 entries, MAX. Really glad to see I was wrong.

I can't thank all the people who work behind the scene for this fest enough. Thanks to their effort that the fest has been running smoothly. Besides, this fest is really a great opportunity for me to do what I like and best of all it's free :-).

These festivals give us filmmakers something to look for. Even if you don't enter, you can look forward to watching an array of different films with unique stories and cinematography. Whether in the festival or not, this site will definately raise your game and if you're lucky, get to meet some cool people along the way.

Thanks again to all the mods. DVXuser kicks a$$!

I was just commenting to a friend about how this is a "user group" for the DVX but I guess that's what it is technically.

For me, and from what I've seen, it's a place for filmmakers who want to talk seriously about the art of film and progress in their filmmaking while not taking themselves too seriously and having a good time doing so. And I think that the mods and their level of integrity and ability to engage us, the users, as well their constantly unrivaled hard work makes this not only a foremost place for DVX discussion but also for film discussion in general. I think everyone, especially those who put the time and effort into these awesome films agree. And those of us who didn't make the deadline, wish we could have competed, or those who simply come over to view recognize how great this place is.

And it's the rockin' mods who make it that way.

Great work and thank you.

You got it Danielleus... The emphasis is on the "USER".

"DVXuser" has become more of a brand name now than anything else, and a look back and homage to the roots of the site. I like to think of DVXuser as Kleenex, Xerox, Scotch tape, etc... :)
