MC 105 Video Production Reminders for Final Requirements and Awards Night

Here are some guidelines for your Short Film submission and Awards Night:

1. The official deadline of your short films are on March 18, 2017 at 6pm. One of you from the group will have to personally submit it to me in the Ebay.

2. Create an effective title/title image incorporated in your film. We will screenshot that so you don't have to create a poster.

3. The length of time for your films should be up to 10 minutes only. Follow the time limit set or else you will be disqualified for the best picture award.

4. Do not forget your credits.

5. All groups are required to submit an evaluation of the roles of each group member with a rating from the group's leader (use the 1-10 scale). Email the said evaluation on or before March 19, 2017. No evaluation,  no grade. I hate free riders. Deadlines are deadly.

6. Use .mp4 as file format and 720p for the resolution. I will not accept files that are too big just because you didn't check the resolution when you exported your file. Remember, I would know if you don't follow instructions.

7. Subtitles are not required.

8. The showing of the said short films will be in Cinematheque Davao on March 20, 2017 at 4:00 pm. The even is entitled, "Pelikulang Atenista Film Festival." I will start the event ON TIME.
