FCPUG SuperMeet: Call for Submissions

 

You going to NAB?

Great stories exist in our community and the Final Cut Pro User Group Network (FCPUG Network) will bring these stories to the forefront to highlight at the 5th Annual NAB FCPUG SuperMeet, to take place on Wednesday, April 26th, at the Rio Hotel in Las Vegas.

The FCPUG Network is looking for your best work created in Final Cut Studio. This is your chance to get your work seen by a full house of filmmakers, broadcasters, FCP editors, gurus and enthusiasts. We're talking about hundreds of people seeing what can be done and what YOU have done in Final Cut Studio. So if you will be at NAB and want to show your work, then read on.

We will choose an undetermined amount of the best submissions based solely on how interesting it sounds and on diversity. Works can be from a doc, music video, narrative, animation, wedding, corporate, home movie or graphics heavy piece, or for the web. We don't care. We want to see what you are doing. This is not about good and bad. It's about interesting, stimulating and diverse stories.

HOW TO ENTER:
1. Send an email to michaelh@lafcpug.org
In the email, state your name and contact info and include a paragraph or two on what is on the tape you wish to submit. We are not accepting tapes at this time. Only emails from those who will be at NAB and at the FCPUG SuperMeet and have a piece they think will rock the house will be accepted.

2. Deadline to send your email is April 10, 2006. No exceptions!

3. All email entries received by April 10 will be reviewed by a panel of 5 curating judges from LAFCPUG, BOSFCPUG, CHIFCPUG and SF CUTTERS.

3. Your work can be on Mini DV, DVCam, DVCPro 50 or 100 or DVD only. No exceptions.
