Spy Fest 2007 - Submission Info

The opening post gives the info, please read it to make sure you have everything included (I mention this because we changed what is to be contained in the ZIP from previous fests).

Once you have the ZIp with the correct files contained within, here's the link:

I noticed on the submission form that it asks for a Logline and a synopsis....I am under the impression that those two things are the same, right? Or by logline, do you mean a short one-liner, more like a tagline?
 
A tagline is meaningless marketing hype-- "A bulletproof vest won't stop a heart from being broken."

A logline succinctly describes a film in one or two short sentences---"A former East German agent is called back from retirement for one last mission and must match wits with his former spymaster to foil a terrorist plot."

Please don't give us a tagline. If you can write a good logline, that should suffice for the synopsis as well.
 
yea, sorry, I should have been more clear. The "logline, synopsis, poster, frame grab" are all optional, however they will be utilized in a newly formatted download page which you'll see when the viewing begins this time.

I should have said "Tagline" / "Synopsis" since that is more representative of what I was after.

The viewing will begin as soon as all the films have been uploaded and verified by Barry and myself. We'll try to get it up this weekend, but don't hold us to that date. :)
 
if the logline and synopsis are optional can you get rid of mine? i filled it out on the form because i thought it was required
 
"Delivered film must be formatted as 16:9 or 2.35:1 Anamorphic."

What abou subtitles, do they have to be on top of the picture, or can i submit a 4:3 file, with the subtitles in the black areas?

Larry, I sent you a private message regarding my film uploading. Can you let me know if there is a problem with it?
Also I forgot to covert my still frames from the movie from Bitmaps to JPEG's. Should I re-upload?

Sorry

Working on encoding our SpyFest submission (SORRY) right now. It's 2.35:1 aspect ratio. Can we upload it in a 640x272 resolution without black bars? Or do we need to upload in 640x360 with black bars? Hope 640x272 is okay because that's what encoding right now.
