I was one of the vids that didn't make it in any category. Oh well I can care less. My vid was unfinished before Otakon. It was there that I decided to finish the vid for pro just to see what happens. I wasn't expecting anything and frankly its perfectly fine. Hell I don't liek my pro vid much at all so its not going to bother me.
Simply put there were a lot of great videos. Not everyone could win or it would defeat the purpose of the contest.
Does that mean that I agree with all the final nominations? Nope. Actually the video I liked least got nominated in at least one category. However I can agree with a good deal of the chosen videos being on the list. I have opinions on a few not being the best in their respective categories. However there are 58 different editors with different tastes. That's the fun part of pro.
And the bull on needing aftereffects. There were plenty of vids that did not use it at all. Actually I was quite pleased that many videos opted for either simple effects that can be done in premiere and others used very few effects.
Simply put you didn't make it. So what? All it means is you try again next year and see if you can do better. But to cry out on things being unjust reflects poorly on yourself.
Unjust and confusing are two diffrent things.
Whats confusing is, why the general idea is that it's a blind contest, and yet... it's not.
