The Video Art Track at Anime Weekend Atlanta 2013 VAT AWA

The idea behind it is to achieve blind judging as best as possible, not to prevent improving videos. The whole idea about feedback for pro was not sharing with others PARTICIPATING in pro. I'm fairly certain that beta testing is encouraged.

If it's just for opinions though I'm sure most can agree that is fine. Its when someone does it and then tells others "Vote for my video please" that is frowned on. I know that most of us here though probably don't beg for votes. That is I've seen some videos win, that while personally aren't what I'd pick, were still really good and deserved the victory. Not to mention I'm sure more wanna win legitimately than get an empty victory.

Personally I think it's a bad idea, as you have more "invested" in something you gave feedback to and you view it differently than you would something you just watched fresh for the first time. It also kills any potential of watching it without bias, which is part of the point since they try to keep it anonymous.

Any ETA on pro?

[jingoro]

All the files are downloaded but one, I'm waiting on a resubmission for that one, and am still going through reviewing for lack of bumpers and trailers and other identification. I expect them to be out by Tuesday at the latest... but still hanging onto hope for LATE tonight too.

All pro submissions have been reviewed. If you entered Pro, you should have received a confirmation email by now. Only one email address bounced. Screening copies are waiting on one resubmission, I expect them to be distributed tomorrow via Bittorrent. You will receive an email with instructions at your registered email address.

Some people have requested not to use BitTorrent, and the file will be made available via other means, however it will take some time to upload from here and likely won't be live until the next day. I strongly recommend using BitTorrent if you are able.

If Hana no JudgeHolden Productions is here, or someone here knows how to reach him, his email address bounced, he should contact me here, or at videoart@awa-con.com ASAP so I can get voting instructions to him.
