Curious since an HD format was accepted this year, will the AMV be shown in the high-res format? Is that supported by the screen?

The Screens Will still be SD but Taking a High RES format like HD and playing it on a computer gives a better picture then just running SD.

I'm curious as to why you think that... The computer will just re-size the video down to the SD resolution before sending it to the projector. You won't gain any quality over videos that were originally encoded at the SD resolution being used.

Like stated in our rules section the videos have been rescaled to HD720P with a proffesional transcoder. The less the video has to be re-sized by software on the fly the better the quality. *No artifacting* It gives a much better picture. So 720P is 1280x720 and the projector will be running at 1024X768 So it's making minor adjustments to the video. You always want to start with more and shrink it down then have less and try and blow it up to size.

That makes more sense now considering you aren't actually using an "SD" projector...

I want someone to do a video recording of the audience reaction to my AMV. That's how bad I want to be there. :P

I know a portion of the list kinda..

FanimeCon 2009 this year for their FMV contest had Judges and Audience award like every year, however this year they had 3rd, 2nd and 1st place for each category.

This is a rough list...I will wait for Sean to post the official list since I don't remember it all.

I only mostly remember getting a tie with Brad and Rider's awesome video winning pretty much everything.

==========

Judges

Best in Show: r0bo7$

Action:
1st: Haunting Hour
2nd: forgot
3rd: You Know My Name

Comedy:
1st: Goldenpants: Based on a True Story
2nd: Perfect Day & r0bo7$ (Tie)
2nd: Perfect Day & r0bo7$ (Tie)
3rd: none

Drama:
1st: forgot
2nd: forgot
3rd: forgot

Experimental:
1st: forgot
2nd: forgot
3rd: forgot

==================

Audience

Best in Show: Lord of the Anime

Action:
1st: Switchback
2nd: forgot
3rd: You Know My Name

Comedy:
1st: r0b07$
2nd: forgot
3rd: forgot

Drama:
1st: forgot
2nd: forgot
3rd: forgot

Experimental:
1st: Lord of the Anime
2nd: forgot
3rd: forgot

=============

The award ceremony was done quickly this year and I don't remember much, so i apologize.
We'll have to poke Sean to post it up.

=============

In any event, i felt this years contest at FanimeCon 2009 was a 'little' bit lacking. There were a few obvious videos that were questionable quality.
But the there WAS some stiff competition between the winners, runner ups and what not.
The contest overall was very good, very fun and enjoyable!

Damn, I need to know what happened for Drama and Experimental, knowing that I probably got second in Experimental (hopefully) and chances are I didn't win at all for Drama. :P
