A little company promotion...

No, no. Anything included in the provided footage is pre-approved.

You better! Also, I missed you this weekend. Again. Must make concrete plans ASAP. I'm demanding concrete planning!

That couldn't be offensive to ANYONE, could it?

You worked in Irvine, so you should know how offensive polka dots are.

I have a nagging doubt/ question about one of the rules for this. In the Official Rules, I read the following:

"Length of TV Spot can not exceed :30 seconds in its entirety; the TV Spot must have :03 seconds of information with film title and rating on black background at the end-actual video portion will be no more than :27 seconds in length."

Now, in the clips folder there was a clip exactly :03 seconds in length. It has the title, release date and rating, and I have been assuming that this is the clip I am requred to include at the end. BUT, it is not against a black background, and it kind of oozes into place, so none of that info is onscreen for the entire three seconds.

Am I supposed to create a 3 second info screen against black on my own? Or am I right in assuming that this provided clip will cover me? I really don't want to be disqualified over such a technicality. (If I'm to be disqualified, I want to EARN it!)

Other than that, I'm done.

You're cool with that clip, buddy. The total time is :03 seconds, and that takes the "oozing" into account.
