Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

Ooh, so STEAMPUNK will be able to compete in a contest after all.
I just need to hurry up and finish the thing. mini/lol

Looks nice, and I like that you're not requiring any logos or anything. That's always annoying.

Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

I am going to try and join. mini/smile

Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

Could someone please move this to the contest and festivals forum?  Thanks!

Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

Hope I can enter.

Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

Totally going to enter.

Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

Hey, quick bump and a question.
Can the film be unlisted?

I'd like to get STEAMPUNK in this, but I don't want to publicly release it until the music is all complete.
Could I submit the current version, leave it unlisted, and then later 'release' the finished one?

What ever you submit is what will be judged.  You can link to the final video as an annotation or something in the description. We plan to make a playlist of all entries.

If you add the BFG logo at the beginning, you could win a special category.  (see rules)  Your unfinished version might have a shot at that in addition to other categories.

Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

Can we enter a film that's been made for another contest?

Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

Unfortunately I wasn't able to finish my project in time for this contest. I'll definitely be entering any other contests that you have planned for the future!! mini/smile

Yep. As long as it's under 10 minutes and released in 2013, it's all good.

Brickfilms made for other contests (BRAWL, GO FILM, Christmas in a Minute, OYO Video Contest II) are allowed in the Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival.

Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

When will the results be released?

Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

Hm... Most of my films this year are contest entries... Time to look through my films for something that's a good film, but not made for something else.

Re: 2013 Brickfilmer's Guild Animation Festival

I finally submitted mine! Thanks again for hosting. mini/smile
