Sounds good to me, I'm gonna re-score the sample film too, just for shits and giggles :)

Anyone else taking part in this?

Just finished filming one of our entries a couple of hours ago. Feel so physically and emotionally drained I just want to curl up and cry (feel totally burnt out after 12+ hours of shooting). Hoping to have a rough cut done over the next few days.

I've already played my part ;) . . .

Well, after a ridiculously stressful few days both entries were uploaded in time. The idea was that I'd edit one entry and the camera operator would do the other. I was fine with that even though he'd been a bit flaky of late due to personal reasons and I'd said on numerous occasions that if he'd wanted to leave it I'd be more than happy to do it. Anyway, my edit was largely done, save for making the titles look nice, grading the first half of the film and fixing the audio when on Christmas Eve I received a message from the editor saying he was having 'laptop problems' and wouldn't be able to do the edit (yeah right). So basically, Who's There was uploaded largely as it was and I spent about 3 days editing Santa's Slay from scratch, meaning both didn't turn out quite how I'd like (and when I say editing, I mean editing, colour grading, audio-mixing, and foley, the last part being so frustrating as it takes so long to get right, is really wonderful when it works well yet something no-one ever notices or credits.). The joys of no-budget filmmaking. Anyway....enjoy!

Top work, Paul!!! :shocked: Mind boggling to think you achieved all of that in such a short space of time. Bravo on the Tenebrae reference ;) . And well done to Rik on the creepy score!

When are the results announced?

PaulD 2nd January 2014 10:57 AM

The top 6 films are shortlisted on January 26th then the winners announced a month later. There are some great pieces of work entered in it so I'm not too hopeful but it was good just to get it done

Was an absolute pleasure working on this, really enjoyed it, so thanks to Paul for asking me :)

And thanks to SJ for the kind words :)
