Next UWOL Challenge?
 
Is UWOL 16 around the corner? Or should I start checking back in a couple of weeks?

:-)

Trond Saetre January 1st, 2010 10:57 AM

Ryan, we are in the middle of the (2nd) annual UWOL/DVC charity challenge now.
Deadline is January 10. The theme is already announced weeks ago, but you can still sign up and join us there.
See the separate subforum for the charity challenge for more details.
The DVC / UWOL Charity Challenge Forum at DVinfo.net

Next UWOL Challenge will probably not begin until well after the charity challenge has finished.

Ryan Farnes January 2nd, 2010 10:09 PM

Ah! Thanks. I had read a little about it but didn't realize...

Dale Guthormsen February 2nd, 2010 10:35 AM

Was wondering when the next uwol is going to be, no hurry just wondering.


Dale

Trond Saetre February 2nd, 2010 12:40 PM

Hopefully soon. I'm ready for a new challenge.

Me too.

A fantastic Mr. Fox says hello from Tuesday Feb. 2, 2010.

Meryem Ersoz February 4th, 2010 10:05 PM

ok, folks, looks like DVC is running a Challenge in early or mid March - I don't like to compete with them, so our sign-up thread will appear as soon as theirs closes...so keep an eye on what they're up to, and you'll know what we're doing.

better yet, go sign up when Lorinda puts up their thread!

Trond Saetre February 5th, 2010 03:40 AM

Wait until late March/early April... that's a long time.
ummm, we could always have a super quick late-February challenge ;)

Ryan Farnes February 5th, 2010 02:02 PM

Trond, I thought that too. Then I realized that I think Meryem is waiting for the signup thread to close for the DV Challenge thing that "ends in March." They're signing up right now, and once they're done signing up, then she'll post I believe.

I think she totally intends to put something up in the next week or two here.

Trond Saetre February 5th, 2010 03:25 PM

Well, that sounds good. Hope you're right.
I can survive waiting a few weeks.

Not quite.

Some are showing interest in one in March or so but it's only tentative at this time. The actual "signup" will be announced when the dates are confirmed.

Trond Saetre February 6th, 2010 02:40 PM

Yes, that's what I thought too.
Well, while waiting for the uwol to begin, I guess I'll just make some other videos instead.
Can't just sit here without doing anything. :)

Ryan Farnes February 7th, 2010 07:18 AM

Oh, I see.

Looks like we will have to wait a while if next UWOL will be after the DVC.

Dale Guthormsen February 7th, 2010 06:12 PM

Good evening,


I do not think we are competitive to the dv challenge, we are actually different. I do not really think we should postpone for that reason. Most people do not participate in the dv challenge because most of what we do is different, often times totally on our own in the middle of nowhere.

If anyone likes they are encouraged to participate in both.

And they make fun of us for shooting rocks! :)

Trond Saetre February 8th, 2010 09:08 AM

Kevin, that's because it takes a true UWOL'er to see the real beautiness in the rocks :)

Let's hurry up and have a quick uwol 16 before the dvc gang has made up their mind if they will have a new contest or not.
(No problem in them having their challenge after ours)

Meryem, the rocks are out there waiting for us to shoot them. Let's go for it.

Mike Beckett February 8th, 2010 09:55 AM

I won a UWOL once, and my entry was 100% about rocks. Nice shaped ones, and some with lichen.

Boy am I a proud, dyed-in the wool, hardcore UWOL-er!

Dale Guthormsen February 8th, 2010 05:25 PM

I am ready,

I will need to dig through the snow to find those rocks. I know they are down there somewhere.

No one even noticed that in the dv/uwol I had placed a few rocks down in the corner of the manger.

Bigger must be better.


Dale

Geir Inge February 8th, 2010 06:03 PM

Me too wanna rock!

Chris Barcellos February 8th, 2010 06:37 PM

I am Bi-Video genre, I am up for UWOL this month too !

Bob Thieda February 8th, 2010 06:58 PM

Come on, gang...let's rock!

Bill Thesken February 8th, 2010 07:11 PM

Hey Geir, is that animal a 'Stoat/Ermine' ?

Bill Thesken February 8th, 2010 07:38 PM

Geir, or is it a 'Pine Marten' ?

Geir Inge February 9th, 2010 01:44 AM

It's one of four pinemartens I filmed last summer, and as you can see:
Standing on solid rock :)

Meryem Ersoz February 9th, 2010 10:45 PM

calm down, people...we'll be getting one of these up and running soon, just give us a chance to sort it out. ROCKS will not be the theme...

How about Stones?

Mick Jenner February 10th, 2010 02:19 AM

Not rocks or even stones what about Boulders then in honour of Meryem

Mike Beckett February 10th, 2010 02:38 AM

Get stoned with UWOL!

Sheesh. And I had a pile of pebbles all ready to star in my next production.

Trond Saetre February 10th, 2010 11:47 AM

No more rocks? Hmm, I wonder if my last rock was too big. :)

Dale Guthormsen February 11th, 2010 04:18 PM

Definitely not boulders,

I only have one in about 220 sqaure miles around here, and then I do not think I could actually get to it due to the snow!!



How about some real suggesdtions for themes!!!

for a change, why not give a title to be fulfilled instead of a theme.

example: "This old Tree"
"Never ending story"
"Mysterium"
"Invasive species"
"Death of a season"
"Modern day ruins"
"As time Passes By"


Lets here some!!

Trond Saetre February 11th, 2010 04:37 PM

That's a pretty good suggestion, Dale!
Would be cool to try something different than what we use to.

Bob Thieda February 11th, 2010 04:48 PM

I like that, Dale...I like it a whole bunch...

Kevin Railsback February 11th, 2010 04:48 PM

I'll just be happy if I can get out and film anything. :)

Dale Guthormsen February 12th, 2010 01:08 PM

As I see it we already have 13 people on the list ready to go, no doubt some others would sign on.


I have cabin fever so bad I am going out on a drive to day to do some drive by shootings, hd of course.


dale

Meryem Ersoz February 12th, 2010 01:15 PM

sign-up will appear next week, I'll be out of town this weekend....

Dale Guthormsen February 12th, 2010 01:16 PM

Your a champ Meryem!!!!



Delerious Dale

Trond Saetre February 12th, 2010 03:04 PM

Very good, Meryem!
I can't wait to get started. :)

Graeme Hay February 12th, 2010 06:49 PM

Sounds good, camera ready to go!

Sam Mendolia February 14th, 2010 08:55 PM

I have some new toys I built, that I am just iching to try out, so being forced to go out and use them, is just what I need to get off my butt.
