One minute short contest idea

Re: One minute short contest idea

I like this whole idea for the contest. Once all the entries are in, shouldn't they all be posted on one page together instead of a million links spread out throughout a long thread? Then there could be one forum where everyone comes and votes/discusses. I'm just thinking of how to keep it simple and organized....
 
Re: One minute short contest idea

dont worry Kai.. Im making a completely seperate place for this. :)
 
Re: One minute short contest idea

IM down with all of these ideas:

I would like a little more idea than "City Life" however...

1. Narrow dwon a legit theme

2. Submission Deadline


3. Winner Announcement (As voted by peers)

4. Prize distro'd
 
Re: One minute short contest idea

yes sorry Dan.. that theme sounds a little weak.. although it would be nice to see where everyone is from heh heh, but we have alot of members that dont live close to a city.
 
Re: One minute short contest idea

john/jarred- im purposefully making it vague so people can do their own thing to begin with. Basically the shoot must involve the city, whether it be streets, alleys, clubs, the homeless, all of the above, etc. Do what you like, just as long as it involves some aspect of the city.

If you dont have a city nearby, use the burbs or town you live in. be creative.

I've seen several good things that have been displayed in the "cafe" section of this board ie:

City:

Re: One minute short contest idea

Thats cool (If Jarred concurs)...

If Jdogg says you make the rule, then make the rule. Winner of each month after makes the new contest rule (Parameters)

Jarred, its up to you ultimately. Lets get this ball rolling. Obviously, other than a theme:

1. Prize (We have to get sponsors; my wife alreafy okay'd sponsoring a month with free shades or whatever; I know, I know, no big deal; but hey, free is free!
2. Submission Due Date
3. Awards

4. Next monthly film contest!
 
Re: One minute short contest idea

yeah.. the winner choosing the next theme is something i thought of a few posts ago but didnt include.. or did I? anyways your on the same page.

And yes.. since Dan got the ball rolling this one we can roll with, I think it is a little vague and hopefully they become a little more focused, but its a start, something we didnt have before.
 
Re: One minute short contest idea

ugh i just cant make everyone happy :'( I'll make my damned city montage without you! :p

Fine, here's the new theme 2.0 :

"Have you ever had the feeling you were being watched?"

better? worse?

Oh yeah, do you think we can start the contest next week, i'm going on spring break vacation ;D
 
Re: One minute short contest idea

LOL

Much better! I love it!

Where should we post the OFFICIAL THREAD? (HOw about HERE and the CAFE?)
What does the WINNER get? (JArred mentioned a battery? My wife will hook up with some kick ass polarized shades as well)
When are SUBMISSIONS DUE? (How about 3 weeks from now?)
WHEN are the final results revealed? (March 15th? And the day results are revealed, the winner announces the next months rules)
