Tekkoshocon 2007 AMV Contest Finalists

[Illia Sadri]

Let me just say that with 85 entries this year and nearly 6 hours of video to go through, making cuts this year was absurdly difficult... particularly in drama which had simply a ton of entries and not enough time for them.

The main showing is scheduled on Friday evening and anybody who entered who is planning on being there will get priority seating.

Alright so here is the final list and in the playback order I anticipate using for the convention.

And if I misspelled anything blame it on my lack of sleep and will be fixed after I am coherent again. I have been up for the better part of 2 days running the two prejudging sessions to determine the finalists.

Main contest showing is on Friday afternoon with others through the weekend and finalists announced at closing ceremonies. And Please don't ask for finalists until a few days after the convention. I will post or will have someone post for me soon enough. But let me get my foot in the door for a moment before being bombarded with emails and posts on the matter.

[Radical_Yue]

YAY FINALISTS!!! =D

[Illia Sadri]

Yep..... And I think I fixed my typos. So I will go pass out now so I can be awake and study for politics exam this week and try to make more of the Acen schedule....

*yawn*

Enjoy

[helix99]

nice....

[zzgorgo]

Oh,Bummer. I wanted to see the action ones.(I did the Macross stop motion) Due to lack of funds(no car,no hotel room), I can't attend the convention for the entire weekend. What a disappointment...that it's mainly on Friday
Well, good luck to everyone who submitted a AMV and are able to attend on Friday as well as the rest of the weekend... I was going to go Saturday but might not
bother now. It's a real shame that my Animetal Golion stop motion video didn't make it. I think it would've had a greater crowd responce over the Macross.
Oh. well

-G-

[BauziOLD]

*gasp*
Meri´s trailer is here too? OMG! Of course I want to win the category and I think that it will be interessting and a hard match ^^

I´m happy to be one of the finalist and that there is finaly a trailer category

Bazui

*pokes Illia*
I saw many versions of my name and this is pretty nice ^^ I´m called Bauzi and that´s also my nick in real life =P
Well I like this miss spelling ^^

[Illia Sadri]

I have it right in my database.... Chalk that typo to me being exhausted. But I am sure there are worse misplellings of your nickname.

[BauziOLD]

But I am sure there are worse misplellings of your nickname.

Yeah that´s what I think too. It isn´t the world.

Don´t exhauste yourself too much and search the freetime. It´s rare..

[jade_eyed_angel]

ooo rawr verryyy sexy! =]]]

[SarahtheBoring]

What?! Well. Best of luck to everyone!

I'm proud of this little con for getting big-ticket submissions, and I thank you and the rest of the staff for all their hard work. Because of that, the con-going public can have fun and trip over 14-year-olds at our leisure.

The first showing on Friday is the one where votes are taken, right?

[Illia Sadri]

Friday is the main voting showing although vid rooms show it on sat and I allow voting there as well as not everyone can make it to the first showing.

[SarahtheBoring]

Oh, cool. I should be able to see the Friday showing, but it's good to have options too. Thanks.

[jubjub2]
