Official Hero-Fest Rules

yes of course -- the main thing they care about is that the moves are in unifrom format so that they can all play on the same DVD or be used for various purposes as a unit if need be

so since your 60i will be on a 24p or 24pA timeline and will become 24 fps basically, you will be fine.

Yeah that's what I was saying on Batman.

IN MY HUMBLE OPINION
I think good samaritan that feeds homeless children -- should be NO.

What if he juggles really really well
 
Is there a problem outputing to 24p avi or mov file if you have edited on a 29.97 timeline? Am I correct understanding that we must output a 24p file. I am using Premiere. Thanks for any input.

Hey Jarred!!

Hey Jarred!!

Hey Jarred...I don't know if you saw my posts in the Status threads, but I'm going to be REALLY pressing to get this thing done in time (I know...:violin: ). Is there any chance the May 30 date will be a "soft-deadline" like the last contest? :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

I was merely "reminding" on the Sci Fest DVD....nothing more, nothing less. If you read more into my "requests for information" than that, than I am sorry to have confused you. :grin:

And, if you must know...I have every intention of being done by the May 30th deadline. But I figure it can't hurt to ask now while I can utilize the time.

So there :sticking tongue out smilie:

That's no excuse...he didn't give you any slack when you didn't provide your BTS just cause you were "busy". Don't let him slide that easy....so he's helping with the presentations at NAB, so he's putting on big DVXUser parties...

What are we supposed to do, just bow down at his feet cause he runs this place or something?

I'm sorry ... is there a "request for information" in there somewhere ?
:nads:

I had to take full advantange of the soft deadline last time ... I just couldn't resist making fun of you though ... such a nice set up you gave me

Ooooh Jack Daniel Stanley CAUGHT you, Larry.

Hahah

I haven't s hot a single still of footage, I think I just locked my final location, I haven't gotten a single costume item or prop--

May 30th deadline is ON for me. >=DDDD (Devil's advocate)
 
I wish it could have been 6 minutes instead of 5. That would have saved me a lot of grief. I already have my final edit locked at 5 mins exactly. I mean this sucker is 7200 frames - precisely 5 mins!

Any word on the final compression rules? Is it going to be WMV like the Scifest?

No worries...you give a little, you take a little...that's what makes this place so WONDERFUL :engel017:


How goes your HeroFest entry, by the way? Didn't you decide to slip one in along with all your other projects?
 
ok sorry guys.. just been a really really retarded insane month so ive been slacking over here... Barry seems to be caught up in the windstorm as well so Ill clear some things so we can get back on track.

Some updates.

May 30th is my birthday.. so that is the soft deadline. I want everyone to try and hit that target, but i can pretty much gurantee you it will take me a few days to get all the entries organized, so you will have some wiggle room.

We are planning on a screening party this round for Herofest in LA. nothing to big, but something fun to watch the films in HD on a 2k projector.. tie it in with a DVXuser meeting.

Prizes.. we havnt even started to collect prizes for Herofest.. and honestly i am very happy you guys are rocking forward with your productions with no signs of monetary reward... thats why we starded the DVXfests.. it wasnt about prizes or money but about getting people out to shoot. Very good work guys and gals. I will make sure there is a few things to go around when the time comes though, but im glad nobody is crying about it.

5 minute limit... again, im going to piss of the rule accountants and say if you absolutely cant make that limit, 6 minutes is fine.

Cool. I'm more interested in sharing my film than rewards. I love making films and music, but sharing is a reward in itself. That sounds so cliche and corny ha. Oh well.

I could really use that extra minute for my ending. Then again 5 minutes is nice and sweet. I might just leave it as it is and keep on keeping on in audio/post stuff.

May 15th is my birthday and I was originally targeting that as my date of completion, but everyone knows how these productions go. Thanks for the info on the "soft" deadline, though I will definitely try to be 100% done by the 30th anyway (actually I have to now or I'll never hear the end of it from JDS).

AWESOME!!! You're going to show ALL the films? Or just the winning films? Or just the top 10? top 50?

Prizes are cool, but definitely not why most of us are entering.

Good thing you cleared this up now and not a couple days before the deadline, or you would have had a lot of angry entrants on your hands :) But I'll do my best to stick to the 5-minute mark.

Thanks for the quick clarification :thumbsup:
