Also, to streamline the DVD process - please send commentaries for your films as soon as possible so that they can be included on the DVD.

The DVD for last year's contest is being held up because the DVD authoring house I'm using is slooooowwww. Oh well. It will be out soon.

But for this year - send in commentaries for your films on mp3 to me as soon as possible!

Thank you! Also, would it be fine to send the commentary on the same DVD as the regular movie?

SO MOTE IT BE!

Yes. But obviously I'll need a clean vers w/o commentary as well.

Does this mean that the films wont be posted til after the new deadline?

Films already sent in, that is.

I think that would be the most fair for everyone competing. Besides - usually there is a two week wait to have a film posted on the site anyways.

If I post the films too soon - then people might watch them and make films subconsciously similar to the ones already posted - or not do an idea because someone else did.

If the films are all posted at the same time, then we can be sure that there wasn't any influence on the filmmakers from the other films.

Now...when you say commentary...you mean what exactly? (sorry for the stupidity)

you know like on a DVD you can listen to the filmmakers talk while watching the film? Well you can do that. say something about the production. or sing a song.

alright, cool, thanks.

just had to make sure.

I updated the above list of received films.

Updated the above list again.

Now we have 12 films for the contest - only 4 more to go to match last year's participation.

Send in those commentaries as soon as possible via e-mail so that I can add them to your film for the DVD for 2006.

YEAH! Maybe I'll have time after all! After the accident, I've been working my butt off because I missed two weeks of work, but now I may be able to get something together this weekend!

The doughnut might have a plan up his sleeve. No promises though.

Yay! Come on guys!
