Official Twilight Fest Rules

I like the idea that the films will be presented in the order received, puts the pressure on to get them in on time, and also makes sure you can give your film a good name without worrying how far down the alphabet it starts.

Didn't notice that. That's pretty cool, actually. Good new rule along with the voting system.
 
And mine will be "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Larry R Film" :grin:


Yep, we had the rule in place last fest, but I blew it and forgot to list them in that order. But I've updated the system to do it right this time.

And I'd still be ahead of you if I change my title to "1l Time" :laugh:
 
a ball.... now I have NO idea what to write...

The ball is not the central theme and the story does not have to revolve around the ball. It can be in the background, it could be kids on the street playing ball, it could be a trophy case with a baseball and glove, it could be in a kid's bedroom over in the corner, as long as you clearly point it out to us and give us a timecode reference. It doesn't have to be a big story element. It should be obviously there such that we and everyone know that this film was made specifically for DVXUser TwilightFest, but it doesn't have to impact your story at all.

If they can't vote then sure, but, why allow it then if REDuser's can't vote anyway?

If they can, then, those entries shot on RED could receive the automatic comrade vote. S'the only reason I think it's not exactly fair to everyone.

I think a great rule for all these fests would be to NOT DECLARE THE ACQUISITION FORMAT.

Lets have no talk of Red cams, Letus ultimates, F900s, or cell phone cams.

Lets let the stories speak first then tell how we crafted them.
 
It'll be hard for people not to talk about what they shot on but that could be interesting. It'd be a guessing game added to the fest, another level of interaction if you would.
 
I think the stories do speak first. That's naturally what people are going to care about most. Talking about what camera you shot on is no different than talking about the locations you scouted/secured, or the sound designer/composer you brought aboard. I just don't see the point in limiting discussions.
 
i was kidding about the ball. i just wrote a scene involving the ball and come back to find I've been slapped around like a newbie by Barry Green himself. Not even Penguin or Rogan had a caustic remark for me.. you let Barry do your dirty work for you... you bastards!
