Hey Wheat or Murdock, just to clarify #6... is this of ourselves crying or an actor? Want to make sure. Thanks. :cry:
 
Wheatgrinder. Sounds like a 'fun' hour or two challenge. Where do I upload the finished/edited footage? And. What format do you prefer? Will there be a vote with comments and/or suggestions ? By the way, how intense and creative can we be allowed to get? Just asking...
 
@don_patterson,
There are no rules, have fun and try at lest to have something to do with the given challenge.

When the wining challenge is announced, Ill post it in a NEW screening thread. And thats where all the chit chat\discussion will move.
 
Not gonna vote, cause I have no preference -- just like the challenge. Hate to sound redundant, where do I upload the finished/edited footage? You tube? Or do you have a specific site? And. What format do you prefer? By the way, how intense and creative can we be allowed to get? Just asking...
 
leme say it again don, no rules. Its all for fun, and no prizes will be awarded. Go crazy man! Make an epic film with cast of thousands if your so inclined.

Uploads to youtube preferred as they embed here nicely, but nobody will care if you don't. Format so it plays good on youtube.
