Re: BiM Celebration Animation Contest

The release form says:

I do expect to be contacted by aforementioned creators in the event my video/film/audio is needed for a purpose other than those outlined below.

But then all it says is:

I release the these video(s)/film(s)/audio this day from all claims, including but not limited to claims for damages to my reputation or right of privacy resulting from publications of these video(s)/film(s).

Is this a mistake? This sentence doesn't seem to be outlining purposes, so I'm thinking it must be. Thanks!

Re: BiM Celebration Animation Contest

Hey everyone,

Don't suppose anyone could help a forum newbie out? I've done my video, sent the PM and the email, and in my outbox it says that the message is 'sent', but the recipient hasn't received it yet because he hasn't logged on/his inbox is full. Is this normal? Will I get confirmation when my video has been received, or should I leave it at this? Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question, but I've missed deadlines due to miscommunications in the past and that drives me crazy...

Thanks so much for your help! mini/smile

Re: BiM Celebration Animation Contest

It just means that Smeagol (who owns the account) hasn't logged into it to check.  Don't worry, as long as you submitted it before the deadline, it counts

Re: BiM Celebration Animation Contest

Smeagol has been busy this weekend interviewing RevMen for the Bricks in Motion documentary, which is why he hasn't been checking his PMs. I'm sure he'll check them very soon.

QUESTION: does me being interviewed for the doc prevent me from entering this contest? That treehouse is pretty suhweet.

Nope.
Smeagol told me that we're allowed to enter the contest.

Re: BiM Celebration Animation Contest

Just got back in town after interviewing RevMen for the documentary this weekend. I will attempt to cover anything I missed.

The intention here was that the release of claims applies to the DVD. I think you might be right, however, that the language of the latter portion seems to exceed the first part. I am not a lawyer and we did essentially adjust a boilerplate to be accurate to this project's needs. We don't intend to use the films for anything beyond this one DVD, and so we would contact people if we decide we'd like to use them for something else.

You're free to enter. The more the merrier!

Re: BiM Celebration Animation Contest

All right, sounds good. Can we make our entries public on YouTube after the deadline has passed?

Re: BiM Celebration Animation Contest

Silly question.
Are we allowed to post teasers?
aka...a screenshot of our contest entry. Or have a screenshot as our avatar.

Re: BiM Celebration Animation Contest

Well, after another late night of animation thanks to my horrible procrastination, I'm done filming; so assuming I can get my audio sorted in the next few days I should be tossing my hat in the ring.

Re: BiM Celebration Animation Contest

News update: We will also offer a blu-ray / DVD combo version of the BiM collection (instead of the DVD) for $10 more per tier.
