You do very well, for a young man, Steve. A few of us are older than you. ;-)

Congrats to everyone that made the list. I agree it was nice to see some new faces this year.

Hey Thanks all!

Im actually getting impatient for Mayad to get on that list. Next year!

There were a few surprises with names missing I honestly thought would make it this year. Mayad being one of them.

I love the fact we got to see some new names as I was afraid that it could just become something where we see the same names over and over. I think the next announcement later this week should give us yet more inspiration.

Thanks guys, a big honor and congratulations to all.

Thank you. DVinfo has been an incredible resource for us and we have met some great people through this forum.

Yes..there were some people I would have liked to have seen win. There are some very talented filmmakers who quietly do the work they love.

Congratulations, Jason!

Thanks for the shout out Sarah. It's good to see another Tulsan here at DVInfo.

Congratulations to everyone who made the list. This year was extra special as it was the 5 year to be on the list.

I saw just this morning the released the finalist list, the Top 50 if you will. I'll make a new thread about it.

Hi fellows, thanks everyone who voted for me! Made it to the top 50! I really appreciate it.
Hope everyone who voted meant it!

A few thoughts on that. I actually didn't vote for anyone, but one person! Why?
First of all I thought the end of voting is in March or so:)

Secondly, do not understand how the system works, to be honest got a few letters, asking to do cross voting, which is a bit like "I scratch your back you scratch mine". That made even less attractive the whole voting procedure.

For the fellow videographers who got on the list, I hope that the results can be used to capitalize in your local markets and help everyone to improve their business, to raise the profession. For Russian market it doesn't work one or the other way. Just a few people know what is eventdv, regretfully. The clients do not know that at all.

The point I try to make is that no ratings at all are needed, and any scenario of getting the votes will be subjective and by no means will represent the politics of one or another group, conducting the votes. I hear it a lot in private discussions, just wanted to raise it a bit up.
