Winners and Wrap Up: TwilightFest

Ok, Folks... Here you go.

Thanks to everyone who participated in the fest and all of you who also took time to respond to the films by giving them ratings and/or responding in threads. The fests are continuing to grow, and with each fest, I think the overall process is improving as well.

Sponsors... Woot. Thanks a lot to our sponsors. Speaking only as a member for a moment, we've got some really great sponsors who are very generous when the Fests roll around. Thanks again to all of our sponsors, but these folks in particular who have donated prizes for this fest:

Anyways....

Whoa whoa whoa.... what?

Awesome! Thank you!!!!!

Congrats to the other winners! Good show, LossFest coming up!
 
LossFest was suggested by one of the members this time around... it kept sticking in conversations, so we decided to roll with it... Sounds interesting, and it's in line with our other themes for this time of year (Love, Drama, Loss, etc).

yep there's a recurring pattern here if anyone's picked up on it

FALL = Dark
SPRING = Human Drama
SUMMER = Popcorn Genre

We may stick to that or not, but it's been working so far. Provides for a well rounded season that, coincidentally corresponds with the emotions we associate with those times of year.

CONGRATS to
the participants for separating yourselves from all the people that just talk about making movies

the mods for throwing another successful every improving contest

and oh yeah
the winners.

Much deserved :beer:
 
Oh My! That was a complete surprise. Thanks everyone. The "underdog" placed!

I want to congratulate the other winners and especially "Calls" and "Anti" for making films that made me excited about making another movie. You rock! Here's to LossFest.:beer:
 
Hey way to you guys. Congrats to all of you. Totally outstanding.

LossFest eh? Dammit I had a good idea but I went and lost it...
 
Congratulations to the winners! Hey we're all winners here. It's true - making a movie is a prize in itself.

LossFest huh? I want to know more.
