Woo hoo! How long do we have to upload? I would like to do a last minute run through of my script tomorrow morning. If I don't have time I will just toss it in now.

Thanks! :)

Take the time. We're a little behind this time, so take advantage while the window is open. Door will close Monday morning.

Okay, cool. Thanks Isaac I will go over it again in the morning and submit. I always planned on it and then I got all swept up in the fest and forgot the deadline was so close. :)

I've lurked here for years, had a log in for weeks and I think this might just be my first post. Oh, and I've just uploaded my first script. Hope it's not too precocious of me.

Not at all. You should go and start a thread in the other section and give us a logline if you have it. :)

Oh, and Isaac, Sweet Dreams should be uploaded now. Thanks!

Upload complete!

... or at least that's what it said. Will there be a confirmation?

Really looking forward to reading all these scripts. With the abundance of talent and twisted minds on dvxuser, it's bound to entertain and engage.

Uploaded. Isaac can you confirm for me because I got this message in a small window

"Upload in progress; please wait. Do not close this window."

but it never changed and the other window said - uploaded.

08-10-2008, 05:07 PM

It uploaded fine Noel.

Do we have to have a title page?

It uploaded fine Noel.

Did mine upload? Same scenario.

See, since the deadline was the 10th, I think uploads should have been enabled a week ago, and today should be the last day anyone could upload. But since uploads didn't open until last night, they should run for a day or two to make sure everyone gets a chance.

Good luck everyone!

I don't see the big deal. The mods were busy and one was on vacation so it took them a while to set it up. Isaac said we will have until tomorrow, I think that is ample time to submit, seeing as how we have had a month to make sure our scripts are damn good and ready.

They don't even do a week for uploads on the film fests, and I imagine those take just a bit longer to upload than a script. :)

Anyways, I will be uploading as soon as I can come up with a logline...

Meh, logline sucks, but was all I could think of.

It was so quiet here for so long, and now they're comin' out of the woodwork. Nothing like an impending deadline to get the moles out of their borrows.

Sure glad to see everyone here, and what a mix of tempting taglines!!

Uploaded! As usual, my brain and ambition got way ahead of me, so I ended up with an entire concept for a series. Hard to condense it into a short film.

With career changes and a little one in the family, time got the best of me, so it's not my best effort:( But I hope you enjoy it! Thanks for the opportunity.

Once the viewing page is up, you 'll have a link that you can put in your thread.

Noel Evans

Isaac I just realised that prior to sending I stupidly made an alteration to a scene heading that needs to be changed -- too late to resub?

Thanks, Isaac! It's funny: I was sitting here and all of a sudden I realized I had forgotten to upload last night so I freaked out and rushed to see if I still could, I didn't read over it and I came up with a crappy logline and then I saw this post. If I read over it and change something can I reupload?

Thanks!

OMG! I totally have some errors that need to be corrected, but I already submitted. Am I doomed?

Someone else mentioned. But this section of the forum as eerily quiet, then POW. Great to see. Cant wait to read them all.

08-12-2008, 04:58 PM

You're good until 11:00 pm (PST) tonight, Tuesday, August 12, 2008 ... then uploading closes. Just re-upload the script and I'll replace the existing one with the new one.

Allright, Larry, thanks! Let me know if the new version came through. I am going to go start a thread now. :)

I did to change that scene heading. But file upload size said different to what it is. Hope its OK.

08-13-2008, 02:46 PM

Ok, everything is tested and ready, but there were two scripts that came through unreadable ... I've put out requests to get them re-uploaded and will give them a fair chance to do so.

If by the time I have to leave the office (around 5:00 pm PST) today I haven't received them, I'll open up the download/rating page, but be aware that the two additional scripts will be added subsequently, so watch for them.

Otherwise, if I get the files before 5:00, then I'll open it up before then.

Ok, you got me :evil: actually, haven't read yours yet. I just opened each script to confirm it would open and that it was within the length limit.

David W. Richardson

08-13-2008, 02:59 PM

AWESOME! Can't wait to read all those 2nd and 3rd place scripts! :)

08-13-2008, 03:00 PM

So they still could be 'unreadable'. Gulp!

08-13-2008, 04:01 PM

So whats 5pm PST time? I could only find these under current time

6:00pm Wednesday (EDT) - Time in Washington D.C., USA
Chicago 5:00pm CDT
Denver 4:00pm MDT
Phoenix 3:00pm MST
Los Angeles 3:00pm PDT
Anchorage 2:00pm AKDT
Honolulu 12:00pm HST

You'd better define 'tomorrow'. I think from our perspective, it already IS 'tomorrow' in eastern Australia.

Basically 5pm Pacific time in the US is going to be about 90 minutes from right now. Hope Noel is reading at the moment. :)Well, from an Americentric view, what's today here is tomorrow there. So 5 pm today here, is 10 am tomorrow there...Americentric view, of course. :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

I know. Just didn't want Noel to think he had 24 more hours. :)

Larry Rutledge

08-13-2008, 04:46 PM

PST (Pacific Standard Time), PDT (Pacific Daylight Time) ... I can never remember which we are in, so I always reference PST. The time I was referring to is the west coast of the United States, same as Los Angeles and Tijuana.

Blaine

08-13-2008, 04:49 PM

And what's nice about that, is once we have commercial hypersonic jets, Noel can leave Australia for L.A. and actually get here before he left there...:huh:

Noel Evans

08-13-2008, 04:53 PM

Heh anyway I got the idea thanks Blaine, Larry and David. A bit over an hour anyway. Back to work until then, DPing on a country and western music vid. which is outside my knowledge base, so researching atm. Just have to get the look down with the script I have been given. Anyone thoughts while we wait? :P Then technically I am working.

Larry Rutledge

08-13-2008, 05:49 PM

Ok, neither of the people whom I am waiting on have been on all day so it's not likely they will be in the next 10 minutes either.

Give me a couple minutes and I'll post a new thread with the viewing/rating instructions and once I get the two outstanding films will just add them to the system.
