Official Twilight Fest Rules

In the last fest if I remember the credits could only be 15 seconds. Is there a time limit on this one?
 
Questions:
1.) Will the "DVXuser Leader" really be posted tomorrow? (October 1st)
2.) Once we add the leader, are we still limited to 50mb file size? I ask, because I just got one of my entries looking nice and it's coming in just a tad under the 50mb target...i'd like to keep it there.
 
1) Due to a number of reasons, the leader will not be available tomorrow (Oct. 1) as originally planned. It will still be available a couple weeks before the deadline so you will have plenty of time to work it in.

2) You will still be limited to 50MB including the leader, but will be kept short so there should be minimal impact.
 
Leader will be posted this evening. There will be two versions, here are the specs of each:

1) Quicktime HQ ProRes 422 100mb 23.98 1920x1080
2) AVI 100MB 23.98 1280x1080

You can choose whichever you want and drop it into your NLE where you'll resize to whatever dimensions utilized for your timeline.
 
I have a stupid question. If I plan to submit a film for the fest, do I need to have a thread for it started as well?

i would encourage anyone with a film to also start a thread for no other reason than to gain experience interacting with your audience.
 
  • All films must be made between July 15, 2008 and October 27, 2008 and must not have been publicly screened prior to the start of viewing. The entry deadline is 11:00 am Pacific Time on October 27, 2008. The upload system is not yet open; we will announce when uploading is open.


Probably not till around October the 28th.

Rules say that the deadline is the 27th. Is it being pushed back?
 
This is my first time really taking part in a dvxuser fest (though I did watch all the timefest finalists), do we vote on ALL the films? Or just the finalists? How does that work? Just curious.
