Pardon my ignorance: Trailers

Haha...sorry if I was part of what was scary on the other side of the door. Those are just questions I could think of right away...and I'm sure other people would have alot more. I think it would be hard to have a definate thing the teasers could be. May we still have bts though ...such as what Jason posted earlier for his film?
 
BTS is still all good, and it's a fun way to market in my opinion. And, I always thought Mark's Variety stuff was just too perfect.

Later,
Jason
 
Why even consider doing a trailer for a 6 minute short? The average trailer is about a third that length. Maybe the DVX team might consider TRAILER FEST in the future.

I like the way things are set now for the DVX festivals. I vote no for teasers and trailers.
 
I really did open up a can here... I really meant teaser... not trailer...forgot about the time differential.

Barry...didn't mean to add to the confusion. This is the first fest I am really starting to get involved in, and although I am pretty sure my work will not compare to these other guys, I am just experimenting with my first attempt at telling a compelling story in a short amount of time, so I wanted to pose a question to get clarifcation. My apologies if you got flood with pm stating "WTF is x-angel talking about....? A Trailer for 6 minutes?!?!" :)
 
That being said, I know you guys want to have fun with this and I do try for some balance, so what do you think about allowing teasers to be posted in forum threads. Not trailers, but teasers. Say a 30 second teaser that doesn't include any footage from the actual film, but could include brief footage of your actors or a quick location shot--more like a film version of a poster

Wow! And I thought this was pretty clear. No more than 30 seconds, no footage from the actual entry.

Oh well, maybe next time.

Thanks for considering it!

I think that would be freaking awesome personally.
