Worlds 2005 Video Challenge

Post by jerkki »

On the behalf of Worlds05 organizing committee I would like to announce that the first official Worlds Video Challenge is open for competition.
Information and rules:

-------WORLDS VIDEO CHALLENGE-------

All video makers around the world read carefully.
The first official Worlds Video Challenge is taking
place in Helsinki this summer during the Footbag
World Championships. Make a 5 minute film and
you can be the winner of best video award with
great prizes.

RULES

Length: 5 minutes max

Deadline: 25th July

Idea: Make a footbag related video which represents your home country/city in some way. Remember that footbag isn´t just freestyle, use your imagination!

Judging: Idea, Filming, Editing, Spirit, Integrity

Format (two options, you dont have to deliver both):
1. MPEG 1 or 2 in PAL video system on DVD or CD
-resolution 720x576
-25 fps interlaced bottom field first OR progressive
-anamorphic widescreen OR 4:3 letterboxed OR 4:3 aspect ratio
-please use high encoding rate (such as 4mbps VBR) for good picture quality
2. Uncompressed DV-format AVI on miniDV cassette in PAL video system

Please mail to jere AT vesuri.com if you are attending so we´ll now how many videos will be shown. If there are over 15 videos, the judging panel
will choose the best ten to be shown in the screening. You need to leave your video to the staff on the check in so we can check that the video works properly.
You can also attend even if you are not coming, in that case contact the same email address.
If you have any questions regarding the rules or have any problems with video formats, please contact jere AT vesuri.com or reply to this topic for further information.

GOOD LUCK!
Worlds05 multimedia crew

----------------------------------------

So everybody start making videos now, it´s only a bit over six weeks until Worlds!

Jere Vainikka


EDIT: Corrected that the video doesn´t need to be delivered in both format options.

We'll see then won't we. What you gonna do? Some flashy editing? Some wanna be narrative? Try a deeper voice next time, my little pony.

Indeed, we will see.

That is a surprise.

Yes.

Yes.

It won't be my voice, but I will take note of your recommendation for future voiceovers.

That is unlikely, but good luck. And by the way, you are a dick for making insults. Now it's personal, bitch.

Is it wrong that I`m more pumped to see Eli vs. Sam than I am to see the actual worlds comp? :lol:

Juuuust the right amount of fighting words in here. :D


PS- Eli, if you need somebody with a deep voice to narrate, send me the script, and maybe we can work out something where I can send you a tape with me doing the narration in my best impersonation of Barry White. 8)

Sam vs Eli - I will take the bets via pm 8)


To add some fuel to the flames:

I put my money on Sam because he released more vids in the past than Eli. Otherwise I guess that Eli has better circumstances/ surrounding than Sam. Hm I guess Eli will make a better vid but it won't be released and so Sam will win ---------Arghhhhhh.
