The DVC/UWOL Charity Challenge 2008 Finalists...

Welcome to the wrap up of our first DVC/UWOL Charity Challenge. Even through the busy holiday season, many of you have found the time to shoot your own film and get it into competition. More importanly, we've raised $635 to donate to the charity of the winner's choice! A huge thanks to everyone who donated (and remember, everyone who donated gets to vote on the winners!)

Next, a big thanks to Guy Cochran and dvcreators.net for providing a $250 shopping spree for the winner! Thanks Guy!

And of course, big thanks to Chris Hurd for keeping DVinfo.net the best forum on the internet!

Ok, dim the lights...

Thanks to all who made the first DVC/UWOL Charity Challenge a success! As some have said earlier, it was lots of fun, and we got some great films to watch. Everyone who participated is a winner!

Just as important, a hearty “Thanks!” to every person who donated. The $635 raised here will be a welcome gift to some worthy charity.

Big thanks to Meryem Ersoz of UWOL and Dylan Couper of DVC for bringing this together. Thanks to Chris Hurd for giving it a home right here on DV Info Net.

And thank you, Guy Cochran of DveStore for donating the prize for the winner: a $250 shopping spree!

Voting was all over the place, which was expected given our diverse backgrounds, but it was really close at the top. Because of the spread I think we’ll do things a bit different than usual…

Here are your top vote-getters!

2nd Runner up
Chris Barcellos – “The Dead of Winter”

1st Runner up –We have a TIE!
Tom Sherwood – “Cold War”
Jay Silver – “Freeze”

WINNER of the First Annual DVC/UWOL Charity Challenge
Per Johan Næsje – “Norwegian Wood”


Congratulations, Per Johan, on a beautiful entry! You not only receive the prize from dvcreators.net, but you now get the happy job of choosing a charity to receive the $635 donated! We will be contacting you about your charity and your prize.

More congratulations to our wonderful runners-up, and to every one of you who submitted a film. As you can tell by the feedback they were all great!

That’s it for now! See you here next year!
