Antman's Short Film Contest #16 - Twist / Open genre

[HueyNRolf]

As long as I can still enter a submission then I will volunteer to be judge

Sorry, the judges need to be non competitors. Thanks anyway, another time perhaps?

[Lawrence189]

Whenever I don't choose to make a video, which will usually be a last minute notice. Sorry though.

[Vishus]

If judges are still needed. I will be a judge this round.

For Lawrence and whomeever else... If you want to Judge, and aren't sure if you're putting in an entry, just make your entry non-competitive if you can't find a replacement judge for yourself.

[Palmer S.]

If you want to Judge, and aren't sure if you're putting in an entry, just make your entry non-competitive if you can't find a replacement judge for yourself.

I think Lawrence's dilemma however is that he still wants to compete; just isn't yet sure if he'll be able to or not.

And while I'd love to offer up my services as judge, I'm about three weeks behind schedule in my Algebra course, and really shouldn't even be on here right now...but that's me; the procrastinator.

[HueyNRolf]

So that's one: Vishus.
Two more please?

[Brendan_pr]

I've missed so many now, time is flying. I'll definitely be putting some effort into getting something done this time

[Sunday Cracker]

if i'm allowed to judge, i would like to

[HueyNRolf]

Nah, it's a waste of an entry. If you put in for judging and end up getting an entry done, just let me know and I'll find someone else.

Sure, You need to submit some comments on each entry and select the one you think should win. This needs to be posted within six hours after the contestants' deadline (5:00 PM). So that's by 11:00 PM (PST).
OK?

[Sunday Cracker]

cool.

[HueyNRolf]

Thanks.
The judges are:
Vishus
Sunday Cracker

One more please?

[Timbit]

Still trying to think of something twisted...

[Vishus]

Huey, If you are not entering, you can be a judge if no one steps up, right?

[HueyNRolf]

Huey, If you are not entering, you can be a judge if no one steps up, right?

Sure, that's always an option.

[Palmer S.]

Sure, that's always an option.

I thought that you already were a judge. Doesn't that make the mandatory three?

[HueyNRolf]

I thought that you already were a judge. Doesn't that make the mandatory three?

I have judged before and will jump in if nobody volunteers. I think it would be nice if the judges rotate.
Invite still open, anyone?

[Palmer S.]

Invite still open, anyone?

I'll take that resounding silence as a no.

Tell ya what Huey; I'm going to try my best to make this one happen. I always say that I will. But in the end, both you and I know that's not very likely to happen. I'm just too much of a dang procrastinator to get anything done, and while I'd love to say that I've actually participated in a contest before judging one (as to give myself more street cred ), I'm more than willing to take that spot, seeing as the contest ends in a week, and I've yet to so much as prepare a script (meaning nothing's likely to get made).

Should things suddenly change, I'll let you know. But for now, you can go ahead and add me to the list of judges. Hopefully this doesn't bother anyone, and I won't be a cruddy judge.

[HueyNRolf]

The judges are:
Vishus
Sunday Cracker
Palmer S.

I'll grab the reserve judge slot.
Thanks everyone and good luck

[Timbit]

I'm more than willing to take that spot, seeing as the contest ends in a week, and I've yet to so much as prepare a script

I still haven't got a script. I'll do some brainstorming today though.

[Palmer S.]

I still haven't got a script. I'll do some brainstorming today though.

Yeah but Tim, you're almost always able to come up with something good in a limited amount of time. Whenever I try to conceive a story, write the script, film it and edit it within the span of a week, something ends up being terribly wrong with it; I'm just one of those people who aren't talented enough to come up with something worthwhile on such short notice.

And like I said, I MIGHT still participate, but that'll be a long shot, especially considering that I've still got to finish filming and editing my now non-entry from the last contest.

[Timbit]

Yeah but Tim, you're almost always able to come up with something good in a limited amount of time.

Well, I wrote a script yesterday and filmed half of it, but I'm not sure if I should keep going on it or start over. The day was sunny and cloudy, and the light kept changing from scene to scene. One clip I set the exposure with the sun filtered by the clouds, and by the time I got to where I was supposed to be and acted though the scene, the sun had come out and blown the highlights a bit. The tools I have for exposure and colour correction won't work very well, I'm surmising.

Writing this has made me want to finish it though, so here I go! After my busy day has calmed down, anyway!

[Timbit]

Done. Not sure if I'll enter it though. I have another idea brewing in my head and would like to try it. If not, I'll upload what I've got.

How's everyone else doing? Who all is entering?

[Vishus]

Turns out my idea was temperature-dependant, and my actress isn't good with doing all the scenes outdoors wet and cold.

Guess I will stay on the judging panel unless I come up with a great idea last minute!

[paperkut12]

I'm going to try and get something done over the weekend last minute. I've got too many things going on I need to film.

[HueyNRolf]

How's it going, guys?
I have nothing uploaded to the group yet. I guess it's still early, but is anyone on target for getting an entry in?
