DV Challenge #6 - Finalists

In my opinion, everyone who submits a film is a finalist. Just getting it done is a victory in it's own. Talk is cheap and signing up is free, so actually going through with it is the big step, regardless of who wins. So here is to you guys and gals!

DV Challenge #6 Prize Package!
A huge thanks to Guy Cochran at www.dvestore.com as well as http://lowel.com/ for putting up a killer prize package! I still haven't figured out a way to enter and win my own competition, but Guy keeps tempting me to do so with great prizes! Thanks Guy!
This time the winner gets a choice of either:
DVeStore Prize Pack #1
-Tiffen SteadyStick http://dvcreators.net/steady-stick
-32” 5n1 Reflector
-DVcreator’s DV Enlightenment DVD
-Shooting Awesome Video CD-ROM!
-And a Lowel Riffa 44 kit! http://www.dvcreators.net/products/rifa.html

OR:

DVeStore Prize Pack #2
A RODE NT3 Hypercardiod microphone!
http://dvestore.com/products/rodent3.html
And a Lowel Riffa 44 kit! http://www.dvcreators.net/products/rifa.html


One personal big thanks to Pete Bauer who has jumped on to maintain the DVC website. Thanks Pete!

And finally to Chris Hurd for giving us a home here on DVinfo.net, the best darn video forum out there!

Ok, out of all the challenges we've run, there has never been one THIS CLOSE. We've had a few squeekers, but usually one film stands way out. Not this time, and this is one of the reasons I'm so glad I don't judge these by myself!

But first a huge thanks to Guy Cochran at www.dvestore.com as well as http://lowel.com/ for putting up a killer prize package!

This time the lucky winner gets a choice of either:
DVeStore Prize Pack #1
-Tiffen SteadyStick http://dvcreators.net/steady-stick
-32” 5n1 Reflector
-DVcreator’s DV Enlightenment DVD
-Shooting Awesome Video CD-ROM!
-And a Lowel Riffa 44 kit! http://www.dvcreators.net/products/rifa.html

OR:

DVeStore Prize Pack #2
A RODE NT3 Hypercardiod microphone!
http://dvestore.com/products/rodent3.html
And a Lowel Riffa 44 kit! http://www.dvcreators.net/products/rifa.html

Next a big thanks to Pete Bauer who has jumped on to maintain the DVC website and now gets to update it. ;) Thanks Pete! Yes, your t-shirt is the first one getting mailed out!

And finally of course big thanks to Chris Hurd for giving us a home here on DVinfo.net, the best darn video forum out there!


Just to drag this out some more, let me count down to the winner. Using the scoring system, I gave 3 points to every 1st place, 2 to 2nd, and 1 to 3rd. While almost all of the top films scored several votes, the big cut off was at 4th place... so here we go!

4th Place with 12 points
Dennis Kahye "Allegory Of The Cave"


3rd Place with 24 points
James Huenergardt "Fresh Baked"


2nd Place with 27 points
Bill Gardner "Sun Burns"


1st PLACE, with 28 points
Jay Silver "The Bright Side"



Congrats guys, amazing work! Shoot me an email regarding your prize packages!
