DVC 20

Lorinda Norton · June 12th, 2011, 07:24 PM

This was an interesting round, with all kinds of takes on the theme "instructional video."

We wouldn't have a great home for the challenge if not for Chris Hurd and DV Info Net so, many thanks, Chris! Also, thanks to Dylan Couper for bringing the challenge to life in 2005. It has been a lot of fun for a lot of filmmakers over the years.

Big thanks always to our sponsor, Guy Cochran of www.dvestore.com for supporting us all these years. For DVC 20 Guy offered the Skycrane Jr as the prize! Thanks so much, Guy!

All right, let's get on to the winners. With nine entries we'll post the top two; shoot us an email if you want to know where you landed. Voting was all over the place, and I am pleased to say that not one entry was left out!

1st Runner Up: Bill Thesken for "How To Make a Pizza"

Very nicely done, Bill, and I'm sure garlic growers all over the world applaud your recommendation. :)

Winner & DVC 20 Champion: Chris Barcellos for "Perfect Planning"

Way to go, Chris! We've seen you in the winner's circle before and you captured the prize again with a great film. Can't wait to see what you do with the 8' jib in your arsenal!

That's a wrap, folks! Have a great summer and we'll see you next time for DVC 21.

Congrats to Chris and Bill, props to Guy and Dylan, and thanks gobs to LJ for seeing this through. Well done, all!

Chris Swanberg · June 12th, 2011, 08:19 PM

My congrats from the sidelines to Chris. Hoping to get back in the game with him soon, but MAN, he has moved up a long ways since I last was on his sets. Incredible job, Chris, and thanks to Lorinda and Guy!!

Wow.... I wasn't even looking for this announcement when I signed on tonight. Everyone voted early and fast, I guess. Thank you all for your votes... and I thank our cast and crew for their efforts in this film. We will surely put the new jib to use in our next projects...And a special thanks to Guy at DVeStore for the support he has given theDVChallenge, and thanks to Chris Hurd and Dylan, and especially to Lorinda who is out front always on theDVChallenge!

Got all the votes by midday. I planned to post it earlier so everyone could see it today but...I fell asleep! Sorry for that; hoping they'll check in tomorrow and give you guys the kudos you deserve. Which reminds me--every one of you who submitted a video are winners in our book. It's hard completing one of these and you all did great! Thank you all for a fun and, as I said earlier, interesting round.

Bill Thesken · June 12th, 2011, 11:22 PM

Holy cow I can't believe I came this close... Great work Chris!

Congratulations Chris and good work Bill. Bill needs to win one of these soon so Lorinda can take a trip to Hawaii to hadn deliver the prize.

Lorinda Norton · June 13th, 2011, 09:41 AM

I think you're on to something there, Dick. Perfect for the charity challenge when it's cold up here in Idaho...

Guy Cochran · June 13th, 2011, 11:47 AM

Congrats to all participants for successfully completing the challenge. It's always great to see folks getting out there and creating. We all learn so much with every project and just get better and better. Chris - your skills just keep growing and growing. Well done! Enjoy the Skycrane Jr. jib arm! It's an awesome device!
