I didnt get my Otakon submission uploaded till just a tad after the deadline.
Sadly also realized far too late that I accidentally uploaded the wrong(bad quality and more) version of my vid.
there goes my chances, oh well.


-Edit-
I got the email saying it is working, so I hope that means it was accepted anyway.

The pre-screenings went pretty well for the most part. Oddly enough, apparently this "Radioactive" song by Imagine Dragons has gotten a LOT of airplay these past several months.... and also, now we don't have to watch Sword Art Online since that got pretty much spoiled yesterday with a lot of the entries, much like Madoka Magica last year. (Considering how SAO became right around the halfway point, that could be a good thing.)

Crossing fingers and toes, here's hoping I scored high enough to get back in the contest after missing out the last couple years....

Oh Christ, more SAO? I already drudged through that whole mess last year. Really should have stopped after the first part. Oh well, could be worse.

Not really feeling that song Radioactive. Is it supposed to sound...good?

Boy, am I getting flamed for this

Every year there is a popular anime that is used often. This is the first time since I've been attending the prescreeings that I recall a song being used so frequently.

Really? Hmmm I'm familiar with the song but I don't recall that. But in this instance there was one reason why I won't be forgetting this anytime soon.

For a while, it seemed that at least one person would send in a video set to "A Thousand Miles" by Vanessa Carlton. That, or the theme from Friends. :)
