Tales of wonders and woe - charity challenge 2011

Chris Barcellos · December 10th, 2011, 02:46 PM

Pretty much in the can. Can use the next week to clean up some things, if I want...

Marc Burleigh · December 11th, 2011, 04:14 AM

Locked and loaded. My entry's in. If I hold on to it for the next few days and fiddle with it I'm just as likely to find myself in the middle of another geopolitical storm that will sweep it away to the nether regions of the priority list. This is shaping up to be the Christmas that wasn't... Work, work, work!

Henry Williams · December 11th, 2011, 02:11 PM

Great to hear your entry is up, Marc! although I haven't taken a sneak peak at it yet because that would be wrong before the official judging process began. Definitely, 100% haven't looked even a teensy weensy bit.

Marc Burleigh · December 12th, 2011, 05:25 AM

Whew, that's a relief. Because I didn't look on your page at all -- at all! -- for your Lovecraftian episode. At all. I suppose I could have blocked views to my video, but with the scruples cherished by the people here I knew that to be a pointless endeavour. Besides, too complicated to log on and find the damned buttons to do so.

The cat is uncooperative, but a few days left until the deadline expires...

Almost threw in the towel and put myself on the Wall of Shame again. Had a rough story, but no crew. Had some crew, but no story. Started shooting - sans my XL2 :( - but here in L.A., we faced days of major windstorms, the power in my area went out days later for something unrelated, then my internet went down this past weekend.

Then a ray of light hit me - Dylan's surprise. I'm determined to finish, rain or shine (it's currently pouring cold, cold rain, to boot) and get myself off the wall! Hell, I'll even do our DVC "run-into-your-credits-time" tradition, just you watch! Anyone else who is still thinking of calling it quits? Forget that and let's finish!!

Oh, did I mention that I go back on tour by Wednesday? Wait, what was the theme again?

Henry Williams · December 15th, 2011, 10:42 AM

Done and online. Really looking forward to seeing everyone elses vids!

Chris Barcellos · December 16th, 2011, 11:14 AM

I sent links in a couple of days ago. Looking for a confirmation of receipt. Lorinda or Dylan ? Do we have one ?

Simon Wood · December 16th, 2011, 12:00 PM

Yup, mine has been ready since about the 6th of December. I thought about doing a new edit, color correcting, or shooting a new scene with the extra time, but never got around to it.

Do we set up a thread with our video embedded in it?

Chris Barcellos · December 16th, 2011, 02:00 PM

What generally happens is as the period for submission nears, Lorinda or Dylan will post a list of people who have submitted. Then, later they start releasing links over a 3 to 5 day period. Then there is voting and the winner is selected. You should not list links until they do.

In past, UWOL side has had their own upload page. I am not sure if that is continuing, but I sent in under theDVChallenge.com email.

Simon Wood · December 17th, 2011, 08:36 AM

Ok thanks. Sent the links to Lorinda & Dylan.

Best of luck everyone, and Merry Christmas!

Lorinda Norton · December 17th, 2011, 09:59 AM

Gosh, some of you guys are so on top of things! I'm impressed. I'll send a confirmation email to you in a bit. For the rest of you, when you are finished, email the link to your uploaded video to thedvchallenge@gmail.com.

Subject line: DVC/UWOL Charity Challenge 2011

Body:
Your Name
Name of Your TV Show/Trailer
Link

If you've already sent and didn't follow that don't worry about it--it just makes things easier if we can paste. Simon, I got your link and will forward it to the challenge address. Thanks.

As for the UWOL vault, we still haven't got things completely set up yet but that doesn't mean I can't set up another portfolio for this challenge. Those of you who want to distinguish your video as UWOL will be welcome to archive it there. Shoot me an email if you want to do this and I'll send you the password when the page is ready.

Trond Saetre · December 17th, 2011, 03:40 PM

It's a wrap. Well, at least it is something, but better to make something than bail out.
Waiting for the upload to complete.

Joseph,

You ever take your show out East? Love to catch it if you ever play Atlanta.
