My videos were a victim of this "process" at the BrickFest 2002 Animation Festival and I felt both embarrassed and furious at the way they were presented - especially since extended efforts were made to play other folks' entries in the e-format in which they were originally submitted. This inept public display of my videos prejudiced me against even considering the BricksWest competition. I had understood though that the organizer(s) had come up with a method for converting all entries to videotape so I thought that at least the entrants would be provided with an adequate display of their work this time. Guess not huh? Now I'll have to think long and hard about whether I want to chance another public mangling of my work (since it appears that's still the SOP) by entering the BrickFest 2003 competition. Greg
