Also, they now have the Toolkit up, they have sound effects and stuff you can use for your own shorts.

[mikeypthatsme]

Sorry for post the wrong link. I just sent my short today, the last day possible. I'd be interested in seeing what other people have submitted into the contest.

[mikeypthatsme]

Does anybody know if you're allowed to upload the video you sent in to the contest onto youtube? Is it against the rules?

[WesScog]

I would not upload anything to the internet that you're submitting to the contest until after you're submission has been shown on television, OR until it's been rejected (if it gets rejected.)

[EnipProductions]

If I make a film and give it to an american can I trust them to submit it and I if (probably not) win Ill give them like $500

[WesScog]

I can arrange a submission of any material by any Non-American teams.

You're going to have to remember to send me an NTSC copy of anything you wanted submitted though.

I won't require any winnings.

[EnipProductions]

If I do Wes and If I win I will give $500 to a charity or something along those lines then

[WesScog]

No, don't worry about it, send me a PM, i'll give you a shipping address.

[EnipProductions]

Question, would the medium of DVD be alright or should I put I get it back onto my MiniDV

[EnipProductions]

Wes, Its over anyway :D but can I contact you in the future becuase there are so many comps in america which I would love to enter
