2005 Wizard Magazine Direct to Video Contest - FAN FILMS
Anybody enter the Wizard Direct to Video Contest this year? If so and you have it available online, please post a link so we can watch your short. I have run across a few doing online searches, but they are pretty tough to run across.
Here is the link to my entry - please let me know what you thought:
Reality Round-Up: Super Hero Edition
I'm too new to post links - so I will just give instructions on where you can find the film - if you go to comics2film.com and then to C2F Cinema! my film should be under there.

Alex,
I had actually already downloaded your film from doing a web search awhile back. Very creative - great work. Maybe we will both get screened in Chicago

Thanks for your comments on my short, they are appreciated.
I am really looking forward to watching your short. I will have to wait until I get home from work tonight as I work in a "cube farm" so I can't jack up my volume at work
Good luck to everyone who entered, hopefully we will all get screened in Chicago - or at least one of us will. If anyone hears back from Wizard please post immediately.

Thought Super Babe was great. My favorite line was about getting hard to hide it from my girlfriend. I really enjoyed that it was an original idea with an original hero, instead of using heroes that already exist. The lead actress did a fantastic job. The directing was great. Best of luck and thanks for sharing.

My brother has won a Wizard contest before (write an issue of "Witchblade") - and he said he didn't find out until after the deadline for them "announcing the winner." He said if you don't hear by June 1, don't count yourself out. I too just want to know. If I made it great, if not, I just want to know.
Good luck to everyone - hopefully we can all meet in Chicago this August.

FedEx - he said it came about two weeks after the date they said they would announce the winner by.

just watched "Arrant America"... not bad, pretty funny.... quite a few racial slurs..... perhaps more than you needed to get the point across but other than that i liked it

Thanks, Scoobless. I considered taking a more nuanced approach, but I found the 4-minute maximum limiting, and ended up erring on the side of "let's make sure everybody realizes this character is detestable" approach, hoping South Park and its kind paved the way enough for that type--though not necessarily caliber--of grating humor.
Taking potshots at the era (and particularly the comics of the era with their self-censorship about Vietnam and use of racial stereotypes--sometimes even with anti-racism intentions!) should have been one of those too-easy, too-obvious parodies, but even without cutting scenes (some probably more offensive, some less), I did find it difficult to hit the right balance--and I'm still not sure whether that's due to overthinking it or underthinking it on my part. Still, I'm more prooud of the writing than I am the animation (grin).
At any rate, thanks for your very valid perspective and I'm glad you enjoyed it anyway.
