I wonder what happened to the for "Best Newcomer" and "Creative Vision" prizes?

Someone told me they'll release these prizes along with the horrorfest DVD.

Is this some sort of reference that us noobs wouldn't get?

There was supposed to be a horrorfest DVD, which was a long while ago. And it never came out - ever.

Hell - that is a horrorfest entry right there. The User Triangle - where DVDs and Prizes go to die.

I find it very sad. I am a newcomer. That I never can get one of the first prizes was very clear, but if there is a newcomer prize and my film was voted not so bad, then there is a little, little, little chance for me. To see that there happens nothing is not really a good motivation for beginners!

I think they gave the prizes away, and now they are just tying to ignore it and hope it goes away.

[Susanne G.]

I wonder what the sponsors of the prizes think about where their prizes have gone to!?

[Ben Sliker]

i think we're going on about 2 months now. And about a month since Jason closed the thread and said it'd be "a couple days".

[sarcasm]I mean ... it's only about $1500 worth of prizes ... [/sarcasm]

[Shawn Philip Nelson]

I wonder if they got to a point where they didnt want to give them out

I'll chime in here and say that it could quite possibly be sponsor issues. I still haven't received my "Creative Vision Award" prize from Hallows Fest and it's been almost a year since.

Mr. Ramsey's been working on it, but no luck it seems.

[Jason Ramsey]

Emails have gone out. Stuff should start getting out the doors soon. It is 10 grand of stuff moving here. Don't want something like what happened with cinealma there. Almost over man

Plus, I've had a lot on my plate as of late in more facets than one is my own personal excuse, and I apologize for that one. But, I don't want to be careless in my cluster headed-ness when it comes to moving 10 and 20 grand worth of prizes for these things. It could be much worse.

I'll make it up to you come prize announcement time for TwilghtFest

Later,
Jason

[Simon Höfer]

Thanks for taking care of this Jason! Your work is so appreciated! Without you there would be no prizes. A resounding applause for you!
