Ahoy all,
We are now accepting films for the 2006 festival slated for August 3rd-5th,2006.Its free submission You gotta like that..!!
Filmmakers wishing to submit can visit the website for instructions on where to send their submissions..

["http://www.wreck-beach.org/2006/2006index.html"
 
I knew at around this time of year they ask for films. I'm going to be sending mine in! :) Heck ya can't beat free! :D Thanks for the heads up.
 
Youll get two of mine in the coming weeks. :) I really want to attend this year- Denis' (Spatula) photos and such are a great sales pitch for the fest.
 
I'm seriously thinking of throwing the full video up on the web...
Anyone have objections to that? I've had the full doc of the 2005 festival sitting on my hard drive since August, and I'm at the point where I just want to show it. As long as no one is going to scream "Do you have the rights to that?", I can post it inside of a week (maybe). What do you guys say?

spatula, put up a disclaimer of this is a documentary of my experience at Wreck Beach, then you should be ok to post it, however, people might bother captain and inquiring him about if they have permission to use the songs and such... so, although it might be ok for you but it might be a hassle for Captain, but either way, since there isn't any $ taking place, it should be 'ok' :)

Fair enough. I'm so sketchy on internet legalities. On one hand, it's an experience captured on video, for no commercial value- just like a blog... on the other hand, legal issues scare the crap out of me because the law doesn't seem to care about excuses. It'll be a risk I guess, but I'd like to think it'll be overlooked. In any case, I'll make sure not to implicate the captain.
 
Just throw it up, man. Sure, a large amount of it is me being drunk and stupid and finishing my movie minutes for the premiere...but that's besides the point :P

But I think i should worry about the compression...im not sure many people's eyes can take 30 minutes of blurry video. I know i'd kill a hamster.
 
Ahoys hail to the king,
Received your two films by mail last friday..awesome submissions ,,thanks for enterring them...
We will be updating the website later in the year ..in fact we are looking for somone who can present a few webpages for the festival..Spatula has offerred his services..maybe we could get some feedback about how the pages should or could look for this years festival...?
