Congrats on entering and winning in the first CGIFest at DVXuser. It's no easy task getting these things in as evidenced by those of us who couldn't so a big congrats all around.

We're working hard at getting you guys some sponsors for future fests. In the meantime, if you send me your address, I'll send everyone a box of fresh Canadian Kraft Mac & Cheese Dinner which has a specific cheese flavour only available in Canada and a real Canadian 'looney' ($1 coin).


Great job guys. Now go have yourself a cold one. :beer:

Great fest.

I'm curious as to how popular it was for viewing and what we could do to improve its profile.

How many people took the time to view and vote?

[triplej96]

Great fest indeed! I had a lot of fun as I'm sure you guys did too. Looking forward to the next one.

I'm with you Mrfluffy I'm curious as well and interested on how we can make it more popular too.

This is a new experience for us too. I think we need to get a few fests under our belts to get a feel for things. Sponsors are pretty hesitant at the moment given this fest is so new. Maybe after getting a few or more fests under our belts we can peak thier interest further.

But ofcourse the fest is not about sponsors or prizes. It's about doing and sharing what we love and setting new bars for ourselves.

So let's focus on doing a good job and if people like we do, they'll come back.

The next fest is a bit weird with some stricter rules, so heads up. The AE guys may want to buckle up also. Motion Graphics will be a big part of the next one.
