Official Contests Judges

[drapeama]

Who wants to judge?
Hey guys, we need your help. We are actually three moderators/judges at the same time and as at least two of us submit entries from time to time, we'd need another judge or two.
So if you're interested, please let us know and we'll agree all together on the ones that will join the team as judges.
I'll keep this thread updated with the names of the judges in this post.

Official Judges:
1- AJUK
2- Vishus
3- HueyNRolf
4- drapeama
5- azmyth
6- Krute
7- Playing
8- MrMicah
9- Almohada
10- charlie_tango

*- In case that one of the users named previously should enter and make an entry, the name of the judge that will replace him for that particular contest will be clearly specified in the contest thread. Same applies in case of non-availability of one of the previously named users.

*- The criterias of the reviews have changed, being regrouped into 4 main criterias, to make it more fair and balanced review. That way, your short can be stronger based on the the basics of the video (story & acting), based on the technical aspects of it (sound & technical aspects) or the best, being stronger in both categories.

*- The winner should be decided/announced by the reviewer in the "Overall Appreciation & Comments" section of his review.

*- The points-system will be used only to give detailled feedback on the user's video to help them to improve their work. It shouldn't be used to decide on a winner.

*- All legit entries should be announced by their rank in the "Overall Appreciation & Comments" section (1st/2nd/3rd). Non-Competitive entries should be announced as NCE in the same section.

No one?

I can be a back up judge if I don't get an entry in (trying to do the opposite), but I'm not a good judge.

I'd be interested to have you in our team. Let me see with my partners but I think it would be ok!
And why you wouldn't be a good judge?

[paperkut12]

And why you wouldn't be a good judge?

I just think sometimes I have a hard time explaining myself haha. It'd just take me a little longer to get my thoughts together, but I'm down for being a judge (I guess I'm judging myself ).

[drapeama]

Hey official judges, where are you?

[darthpaully]

I'm sure I could help out- but I really want to enter a contest...

Is it possible to do both?

[drapeama]

You can always submit an entry, and post a non-official review about others, like I did. We should check that with AJUK and Vishus.

[AJUK]

Is it possible to do both?

It certainly is possible to do both, but if you enter then you can't be an official judge on that particular competition, or your entry should be declared an NCE. There are plenty of other ways to get involved in helping with the competition if you want to enter but also help. For example, you could help organise the Vimeo page, or the archive, or update the list of winners, or collate ideas for future themes. We are always loking for more people to join the team.

I am judge?

I am judge?

Unless you plan to enter this round, then we'll find another one. Any volunteers?

[drapeama]

No one?

[Shaunp007]

No one?

I would volunteer to be a judge on this current contest #28. If I did enter my entry would be Non-Competitional which makes me a good candidate for a judge if you need one.

Let me know...thanks!

[HueyNRolf]

I think you know I'm eager to help out, Draps. Bear me in mind for future contests. But I won't be back in time from the island for this one.

I'll keep both of you in mind, as I think charlie planned to enter this round.

Would be nice, especially you Huey, as you never submitted anything: nothing mean, but you'd be the perfect candidate. One thing: be fair in your judgment for the user.

[drapeama]

So far, Vishus and charlie are entering. That means we'll need two other judges. Huey shown interest, AJUK is available unless he shows interest too. I'll PM Corben to make sure he can or not judge this time.
If you wants to be heard and review other's entries, it's time to step in!

[drapeama]

So for the round #28, AJUK is out of the town, HueyNRolf won't be able to get back in time and Vishus is helping a friend to make an entry.
So I'll sacrifice my chance to make an entry and I'll judge this round. Charlie will do as well and King Ducky just volunteered to judge the entries too.
So, for the Round #28, the official judges are:
KingDucky
charlie_tango
drapeama

[drapeama]

Any volunteers to judge round #30?

[HueyNRolf]

OK, I'll do it. If you'll have me.

[drapeama]

OK, I'll do it. If you'll have me.

I'd be glad if you would step in! Maybe not only for this round!
You have a valuable opinion and you can dissect a video like no others!

Any others?

[HueyNRolf]

Thank you. I'll be happy to serve the contest. Looking forward.

[drapeama]

Thank you. I'll be happy to serve the contest. Looking forward.

Great! Thanks Huey, let's see if we can get more people involved into judging the entries now.

[drapeama]

I'll be happy to serve the contest.

Your name's on the list now.

[azmyth]

I'll judge! and eventually submit one, when I have some time lol.
