The Video Art Track at Anime Weekend Atlanta 2013 VAT AWA

[BasharOfTheAges]

If you want to be in the in crowd in The VAT, you'll have to start planning to arrive on Thursday afternoon!

Shit, I'm doing it wrong, my flight lands at 10AM on Thursday (btw - anyone want to pick me up from the airport...)

Your flight lands in the VAT? That's what I call non-stop! Seriously, this is Atlanta, you'll be lucky to get to the VAT by 3pm.

It's a tuck-and-roll stop. They give you an inflatable vest.

I'm landing at 10:30 along with a whole bunch of others.

Maybe we can all meet at the dinosaur bones to catch a shuttle.

Or if you are so inclined, I land at 1:30 and I'm getting a rental car....

Just a quick question for you oh great neko Jingoro that I'm sure others would like to know. Is there a page where we can check the status of our entries? I know it's an all new way of doing it, but not knowing if you've received my entry has me biting my nails in anxiety waiting to hear.

I second this. I was hoping to get a conformation email for my expo entries, so that I knew that they were received and that I didn't have to send them again.

Yeah, after the encoding and playback issues I experienced I really wanna make sure they play alright. (The problem I had wasn't directly related to the pro judging, there was something up with the way my videos were encoded and the playback machines.)

Actually it's weird because this issue also appears on my more recent org submissions. I tried re-encoding them but they still look like butt if you trying streaming it on the site. I use ZarxGUI to encode to x264 and use 3.0 baseline for the level and for some reason it behaves like when you play a 10-bit x264 video in a player that only has the 8bit codec.

3 new videos? You are a machine!

Sadly, no. While (I hope) the upload process has improved, it's still a very manual process to download and catalog everyone's submissions. I had grand plans for some integration (there's a programmatic API for accessing the data from those forms you fill out) I have not had the time to dedicate to it that I'd like (thanks partly, I'll admit, to Kerbal Space Program, but that's another story).

I will see about adding an "entries" web page to the official AWA site. Sadly, the volume we get means I'm not going to be able to acknowledge every entry personally, but if we encounter any problems we will be in touch to help fix things.
