Place goals are silly because they are relative to the people who enter. Just try and make the best film you can and you will improve as you do it more.]]></content>

That was what the people in chat said to me. I think originality should be based on the approach to the subject matter rather than the use of subject matter. In the case of the Gospel's, I couldn't change anything and wouldn't. So basically if you were to create a movie from the Bible for EASTER any year, your score for originality would be low unless you don't follow the details of the book. If the same method of scoring will be used next year, then I would take this into account. 

My score was lowered because I made something straight from the Bible, not on the uniqueness of how I did it. Which is what I was disappointed with. 

But I'm not going complain to change it and I respect their decision.[/quote]
Oh yes, I understand your point.]]></content>

Harborlight, I believe that your originality score was lowered because you simply made the story in the first books of the New Testament.

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Wow, what a nice surprise! I wasn't really expecting this given the turnout and the diversity of the entries - and the fact that I've been more or less on a brickfilming hiatus for the past five years. It seems that my efforts paid off! 

It's great to have been a part of this! I'd like to give props to Rio for dealing with the scoring issue quickly and maturely.

And thanks to all for the warm congratulations. I'd like to take this time to also say that I was really a big fan of some of the other entries, especially those by Penta and Indy. Both of them, I thought, really shined in production, and were quite beautiful as well as entertaining to watch.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Well done to all entries and congrats to the top ten and winner - I only discovered Brickfilming at Christmas when playing around with one of my daughters Lego sets - and now I'm hooked. I can't believe I forgot how cool Lego is! 
I realise that I'm on a steep learning curve and watching every one elses films is definitely inspiring - onwards and upwards! Thanks to all involved in organising the competition - although I didn't make top ten, it's still fun to enter competitions.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Congratulations top ten!
Is there any way to know my score?

Harborlight, I believe that your originality score was lowered because you simply made the story in the first books of the New Testament.
I'm not trying to be mean, I'm only sharing my opinion.
I really liked Rioforce's animation: [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umY3Nhgp3RA[/url]
It shows the story of the resurrection using flowers.
But even with a low score on originality, you got fifth place. Congratulations!]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I don't understand why my entry was rated so low for originality. My only guess is that the judges thought it was inspired by[i] The Fastest Story Ever Told[/i]. Which in fact, that film never came into my head while animating the short. While making it I thought it was completely original, and I saw that there was no EASTER entry in the past like it. But oh well. 

This was the second contest I have ever entered, and 5th place is nice! 

I also agree with Aqua about the scoring, points seem to not to be the best way for doing this. I would prefer something like THAC happening with contests like these; where the judges pick a top 10-15 and then decide from there. 

Nonetheless congratulations to the top three and beyond, and thanks to Rioforce for hosting the contest! [spoiler]Is it my turn Rio? :P [/spoiler]
Another special thanks goes to Monitogo Studios for sponsoring it.]]></content>
