AdFest 2007

Eh, I release first dibs into the wild. I have too many uptight friends/family that would hate it if I did. I need to be more successful before such an upset ;-)
 
This should be fun. I think it's a bit weird that the actual product/brand is left up to us... the whole challenge/fun of commercials is figuring out how to enhance or redefine an existing brand identity, in my opinion! That's also what people are looking for in a spec reel, so it would be nice to be able to use these commercials to build on that.

However, I like the concept and the shorter turnaround time. And it will be damn near impossible for me to come up with an idea that grows out of control, so maybe I'll actually turn something in!
 
since we're on such a small format are we limited to one entry?

I'm curious about this also. I think it would be a good idea; it would make each entering member put his one best film forward. However nothing seems to be mentioned about it in the official rules, so I'm inclined to think that you can submit as many as you please.

I am hoping to write some spec scripts for dvxuser members for this festival like I did for SpyFest, but if there's going to be a one entry limit, I don't know if it would be fair to be involved as the writer of more than one. In the meantime, I'll write away!
