Hi Larry, just wondering and would like to know why my film's "Upload Verified" is in dark orange color while others are in light green...and I'm the only one who has a color orange...What's the difference? Just would like to clarify. Thanks!

Sort of. I'm not at my home computer right now and I don't exactly recall the specifics, but if anyone out there is having trouble with exporting with Premiere Pro, PM me and a little later today I can email you specific details with screen grabs of the export settings and what not.

Nervously he awaits.

Wow, I really hope nothing went wrong-- I uploaded mine, and then it said upload complete... and the my firefox crashed (first time firefox has ever crashed on me btw)... I really hope that everything went through fine... let me know if I need to resend. I do know that it did infact say 100% before it closed... I think it was in another step... something about file verification or authentication? It had something that said "this may take a few minutes if the file you uploaded was very large."

Mile Bozicevic
10-27-2008, 01:56 AM
Same here, uploaded finished, and it's not on the list.

PANIC! PANIC!
:p

Anyway, as I counted, it seems there will be about 100+ films for this fest.
Is that normal? I think Time fest had about 70 films, so I guess this is getting some BIG proportion...or there's always a numbuer of films that're not finished, or didn't fill up the conditions etc.?

Larry Rutledge

No, because my upload script renames the file to a consistent format based on the field data (specifically film title and dvx user name). So whatever you named it previously it is no longer that name.

How does the system work? We submit the films, is there a polling place for those who have over 50 posts? How does the grading system work? Sorry for all the questions.

Larry Rutledge
10-27-2008, 01:46 PM
The list in the first post is the final list. All valid entries were added to the list.

The start of viewing is predicated on a number of factors, not the least of which includes downloading every entry and watching to ensure it is within the total running time, that it includes the required element, that it meets the theme and that it does not violate any of the rules.

We will, as always, work as quickly as possible to get this step completed, but there are also some other maintenance steps that must be completed as well. We appreciate your patience, and fully understand your anxiety to see the entries. Just keep an eye on the forum and we'll post as soon as they are ready to view.

Once the films are ready we will post a link to the viewing/voting page. If you have 50+ posts and/or submitted a film in this fest you will see the films listed and a 10 star rater next to each entry. You click the film title to download it, then after you watch it you select the rating you wish to apply to that film between 1 and 10 (where 1 means it was the worst film you ever saw, it couldn't get any worse and 10 means it was the best film you ever saw, it couldn't get any better).

If you did not submit a film and you do not have at least 50 posts you will still see the list of films and be able to download/watch them, but you will not have the option to vote.

Hope that helps

The start of viewing is predicated on a number of factors, not the least of which includes downloading every entry and watching to ensure it is within the total running time, that it includes the required element, that it meets the theme and that it does not violate any of the rules.

I originally thought Halloween but Devil's Night would be cool as well. :beer:

Seriously though, I think I speak for everyone when I say that we know you guys are busting your asses to get this Fest up and running. Much appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

Well, I've just completed the monster download of all the fest films - it's just under 3GB folks! - for my share of the approval process. (We don't make Larry sit through them all all by himself.)

From what I've been following and from what little snippits I've seen, I am very excited to see what everyone has come up with. I have high hopes for the films I will be seeing tonight.

I'd like to take this chance to thank everyone who has given the time and effort to compete in TwilightFest. Now that uploads are in, and while you are waiting for viewing to begin, take a few days off and relax - you've earned it. Well done to everyone. :thumbsup:

Of course, if you are looking for something to fill your now empty schedule for the next week; might I recommend the newly reborn DVXuser photo contest (http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/forumdisplay.php?f=152)? :)

When you say 50+ posts and submitting an entry to vote, does that mean you need to do both or either one of the two?

Adam J McKay
10-27-2008, 11:37 PM
I am pretty sure if you don't have 50 posts you can vote as long as you submitted an entry.

I could be wrong however.


But best of luck to everyone. I have made a special folder on my desktop for all the films. Hurray.

Congradulations to everyone who submitted and good luck. while I may not be able to vote I intend on watching them all. and I would be remise in my duties if I didnt encourge everyone to take the time and watch "Possible Charlie"....hehehe. Sage (AKA Stinkpot to those in the forums) went out of his way to bring in a quality short and I'm honored to have been a part of it. Again, good luck to everyone!

Some are already approved and the main list will be updated over time.

For instance: Analog (http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?t=149622) - eustace - Uploaded - Approved

It was true last fest. I submitted, had less than 50 and voted.

Okies,

We've jsut updated the list on the firstpost of this thread to reflect the current status.
We are working our way through the entries now, makign sure they all adhere to the rules, etc..

As we work through the list, sometimes we have questions about films to the makers ("Where's the darn ball?") which can cause short delays in the approval of some films. So don't panic if you don't see yours approved yet. It just means that we haven't managed to get it viewed & cleared yet. We are of course working as fast as we can to get everyoen cleared and into the fest.

Of course we hope to just watch through all the films and check them off as we go. We arn't trying to keep anyone out; if there's a way we can qualify a film, we will do what we can to make it happen.


---

In other news; the films I've had a chance to review have been - again - great films. I haven't come across any that I'd call a "poor film". Good work everyone! :thumbsup:

mikkowilson
10-28-2008, 01:02 PM
And yes, Zerg is correct.

You must have at least 50 posts OR be the submitter of a film to vote. Either is enough to qualify for voting.

I agree. I'm pumped to see these other films, and I'm glad people are getting to see our movie. I know me and Mankin worked hard on it. Hopefully no later than the 1st, but there are a lot of movies to approve.

well, macgregor didn't enter, so they all should get approved. :)









*note for new people, macgregor is a DVXuser notorious for A. making AWESOME movies, and B. getting disqualified every time he enters. In fact, I can't recall anyone else every getting disqualified...

Why was the Circle DQed? I forgot. Mac, on the other hand, tends to go out of his way to snub the fests and get DQed.

I believe it was lack of credits? Or something.... maybe the thanks to DVX request? :huh:
Credits of course would have destroyed the movie. Those who have seen it know what I'm talking about.

Rules are rules though.
