I agree, STAR was not originally intended to be a big contest, just something to get the community back to life after I became admin, but people almost universally demanded I remove the 3 minute time max time limit.  The prizes also improved when ManVan agreed to donate a first prize, so in the end it was a fairly large contest.  But once prizes / funding for future contests are worked out I would like to announce the next summer contest quite a bit earlier next year, if not late this year.]]></content>

Personally, I doubt I'll be able to do any more contests, too hard on a marriage, though I do intend to keep brickfilming, just on my own time-table. 

I learned tons from the experience, too much for this post.  I might try to jot it all down while it's fresh in my mind though.

Aftermath-wise, it's a little hard to get back to real life.  working hours on the film was grueling but in some weird way also exciting.  Doing the dishes is just a little more dull now than it was before. :)  I also have tons on my "to do" list that I kept putting off until after the contest that's going to keep me busy for a while.  

Oh, and I shaved my beard, back to a goatee.  I couldn't waste time shaving when I was working on my entry. :)]]></content>
