ConnectiCon 2011 FMV Contest: Final Numbers Posted

Postby kiarrens » Tue Mar 15, 2011 10:21 am

Please note: Due to the HUGE disparity between videos which I deem "Fun/Upbeat" and "Other," I have decided to split the category in two. If you are affected by this, you've been sent an email letting you know that your chances at making the finals are better now. :)

FINAL NUMBERS:

TOTAL SUBMISSIONS RECEIVED: 123 |:>

    DRAMA: 28
    ROMANCE: 22
    ACTION: 28
    FUN/UPBEAT: 13
    OTHER: 15
    COMEDY: 11

    Disqualified Videos: 5

Of the disqualified videos, one was DQed for being rated R, one for watermarks, one for having submitted the same exact video last year, and two for submitting three videos when they are not attending the convention. Not bad!

This is going to be a very, very tough competition. I am excited to see what the staff think of all the videos during the staff pre-screening on the 25th!

To reiterate - this is one of those contests that takes all sorts of videos, anime or not.

Yeeaaaaahhhh. We're having... issues with our webmaster. The website as a whole hasn't been updated since the con ended last year. :( If I knew anything at all about how to make a website I would be making my own at this point. :(

If worse comes to worse and the deadline is approaching with no sign of website resolution, I will set up my own FTP and just take submissions manually here or on the CTcon forums.

I'm assuming this was supposed to be either "48000 Hz" or "48 kHz". :lol:

I'm very interested in entering, but after reading the rules, (and the big bold notice at the very top about the website), I'm still a little confused as to how to enter. Still, I'll just wait until closer to the deadline to check for updates on it. I've never entered this kind of a music video contest outside of Youmacon, so it should be fun! :up:

Once I have concrete news on how to enter, I'll be posting it up here. I'm hoping to have something for you guys by the end of the day tomorrow. :)

Fantastic!

If anyone has their videos on sendspace or megaupload or their own personal webspace and wants to submit that way, just drop me a line at luther.l@connecticon.org and I'll take care of the necessary information-gathering via email. :)
