You may have first spot on this list, but my concept was better! :P

...In fact, I like my concept enough I'm probably going to go through and finish it anyway. Maybe it will work for the next UWOL challenge?

Jeff,

At least post a link to it so we can see it. More than half of the fun is seeing what others do with these challenges.

I'm in...
I've been so busy this days that i haven't a single shot for the challenge, but i know its all my fault. As a mountain man i would be more confortable in a wolf cage or a bear den, but I'm here, swiming in the tank with this kind and nice little shark...
Hope next time i will be out of the tank

Thank for all your work,

Fernando

I should have known better... I didn't make an entry for DVC7 either.

Things are slowing down a bit, so maybe next time.

I'm going to save the idea for the next UWOL challenge... I think it could work with a wide variety of themes. :)

I swim with the fishes.

My apologies for flaking. It has been a great start to the year for work, but unfortunately not for personal projects. I am deathly afraid of sharks so I better get my act together for UWOL #2! By the way everything I have seen over on the UWOL website looks great. Very impressive from y'all.

Wet Inmate!

Had a killer idea, and just messed up with the schedule and then when at last I had the time got dragged into other things. I'm always helping others. Then there's the rain. With three weeks to do it------there is no real excuse!

The idea will be something I can use in a later movie, so watch out!

But, for now I'm swimming with the sharks, I'm bleeding and running low on air!

Mike

Ungh. I guess I'll have to swim.

Here's the deal. I did the film. However, I couldn't get it cut down to 3 mins without losing the whole basis/original idea. So I didn't post it.

Next challenge, I have some new ideas and will definitely post my footage.

Call me chum

Well,

Add me to the list of shark bait. I was truly inspired by 'The Living Skies', but 'Recreation' just didn't inspire me at all.

Sorry.

I'll try again next time.

Forget the Scuba gear, I might just jump in!

Everything has just been going down hill, from lack of editing programs to horrible weather.

I hope the water is warm!
