I know EricSolo is still tweaking his...anyone else? Been accepted, rejected, still working on it? Can't believe Dark Resurrection was rejected???

I'll threw my hat into the ring again. Nothing new, same one they rejected last year but thought it couldn't hurt.

Good luck to everyone!

yes it it, It was on scifi3d (where I got all the models to animate) That scene was already in the max file and I used it to set up the Luke sequence. I want to say Andreas Jacobsson did that scene but I would have to go back and look at my notes or look back at the end credits of the short.

The mini troopers where modeled by Olivier Couston and I thought those guys looked so cool, not sure it my animation did them justice but It was fun to play with them.

Scifi3d is a very cool site if you ever need a model or sometimes even a scene to use

Wish you guys the best of luck. I didn't make it with the same entry last year, doubt it would make it this year but I'm cool with that. It's all about learning and getting better.

By the way, for anybody who isn't aware, the awards ceremony/screening for the contest is at Comic-Con this year. So come by if you can, should be cool. We'll be there, of course, as should be most everybody who is entered.

Plus, you know, Comic-Con rocks.

Ryan, promise me that you will show up at the Star Trek panel, and snap a picture of the new Enterprise for me. tongue

I submitted a film a couple of weeks ago. They haven't come back to me so no idea if it's been accepted or rejected.

Three quick questions...
1. did you guys mail your film in or upload it to atomfilms?
2. Which is better to do or should you do both?
3. Does anyone know when they watch and review films for entry? Is it the week after the 27th?

I sent a DVD and a URL AND uploaded it. Hope they get it. lol

They rejected my first entry (different film) 4 months ago and that was about 3 weeks after I sent it.

This is the one that I sent back then:

The audio and cinematography are crap, but it's getting decent reviews.

Is it just in a single shot?

I'm sure someone round here could blur it out in after effects. Not ideal but if it means you can still enter.

maybe post a screenshot so the experts (not me!) can advise better

I had the same problem in my film. If it's on the edge of the screen you could use the zoom effect to eliminate it, but the resolution suffers. Or you could get someone to animate a blur over it.
