it was canceled/(postponed?) in lieu of the big mother of a contest that they're having now, that was announced at the Vegas Users party in Las Vegas.

Dave,

Any info on the new contest? I wasn't at NAB and don't see it on VASST site.

..Thanks..
these contests don't seem to generate much interest, at least from what I've seen, & I've participated in 2...

I entered to see what I could do in a short amount of time, & to get more familiar with the Vegas interface, although I only own VMS Platinum.. & also to get a feel for the workflow of HDV...

is the contest for insiders only? I have'nt seen any posts on it...

Actually, only the last contest didn't generate much interest, but that worked out just as well, as there were some issues with the contest that we didn't foresee. The new contest is not listed yet as a contest, but at the bottom of the homepage, you'll find a link to the contest pdf.

Thanks for the prompt reply, Spot. I will look at the pdf and keep my eyes opened for the kick-off of the new contest.

btw: I was very interested in the last contest, just too busy to get my act together! The topics were very cool.

Checked out the PDF... that's a lot of ticks in the box to cover. This could be quite a challenge to nail down all those requirements in a short video.

Submitted films should highlight:
1. Basics of theater etiquette including -
1.1 Quiet during movie,
1.2 Cell phones turned off,
1.3 Disposal of trash in receptacles, and
1.4 Overall do unto your neighbors-type behavior.

Films should also explore:
2. Premiere Theaters’ benefits such as -
2.1 Real D 3-D films,
2.2 Digital Cinema (DLP),
2.3 Digital Sound,
2.4 Espresso Bar,
2.5 Orville Redenbacher popcorn,
2.6 Smoothies,
2.7 Pizza, etc.,
2.8 Along with an overall luxury movie-going experience.

My brain hurts.

LOL, doesn't have to contain all of that, they are just suggestions.
1-4 are the logical requisites.
