your Shameless Rock video didn't make it? WTF oh well man... I just recently saw it and it is like the only video I have seen recently to live up to the hype I heard about it. Great video man!AbsoluteDestiny wrote:Congratulations to the finalists - I think there were around 186 (IIRC) videos entered into the contest so the top 10 videos have done very well.
Comiserations to those who didn't make it - including my Shamless Rock Video *sob*, I'm sure the competition was really tight this year. Better luck next time.
Oh and if anyone can explain what the end bit about "the following individuals...." means, I'd love to know ^_^;;;

Action??? man and I felt bad for entering my Sweating Bullets in as a Drama at Otakon... sure your video as a lot of action, but Acen it was the funniest video there. I am sorry, but putting that video into action imho is a grossly wrong since it uses the action to produce the COMEDY.Castor Troy wrote:If AX will handle the contest like last year and start with the Action videos....
I hope they don't play mine first
Regardless whenever they play mine, I'll duck under my seat...

Thanks Joe, it means a lot.MaboroshiStudio wrote:your Shameless Rock video didn't make it? WTF oh well man... I just recently saw it and it is like the only video I have seen recently to live up to the hype I heard about it. Great video man!
I dont' relly care about the winning, I just wanted people to see it.
Oh well - AWA here I come.
BTW, there is much debate about this but everyone might be interested to note there are only 9 comdey finalists listed. We have yet to work out if this is intentional or a mistake.
We shall see, I guess.

That took up 2 lines so it probably threw a few people off.Death Violence and Hate (in an All-Girls Dormitory with a Hot

I meant for it to be a fun action video but we'll see the reaction at AX...Action??? man and I felt bad for entering my Sweating Bullets in as a Drama at Otakon... sure your video as a lot of action, but Acen it was the funniest video there.

Sorry... I don't think it is a borderline video at all and I feel that it is unfair to the other ture hardcore action videos especially at AX. Not that I am in the contest... but you have already entered it to how many cons?Castor Troy wrote:That took up 2 lines so it probably threw a few people off.Death Violence and Hate (in an All-Girls Dormitory with a Hot

9 finalists
I would bet that there is only 9 finalists for Comedy.
1. To pick a 10th would have been to dang hard.
and/or
2. They only had enough time for 9.
Longer explination:
Figure they picked the best videos from the category which turned out to be 9 videos. Instead of having to go through all the other remaining videos to find one entry they decided to keep the category to 9. This also insures they finish the contest on time. Last year they were rushing everyone out of the theater at midnight. (Due to if people were there past midnight they had to pay more for the theater. You would think with all the dang people going they could afford to pay for the theater longer.)

Whoa! I'm a finalist?
Is that grounds for recognition to post on my site?
Sounds like it was a very difficult selection.
Ian - You have my sincerest apologies for not making it into the Finals. I thought you would be a sure fire entry. I don't know what those people are thinking. Maybe they want you (or your proxy) in person for some special recognition or something.
Not a Finalist, maybe something else?
