Very nice! I actually had an idea like that but I didn’t follow through and tried something else. Good job, sir.

For what it’s worth, my poster is now displaying at the Factory Girl website. Wheeee!

So, uh…I won. ::waves.weakly::

They let me know I was in the finalists last week, e-mailed me that I was in the top two on Wednesday, and then some very nice folks called me with the good news last night. I kinda didn’t want to say anything ahead of the press release and the website update — but seeing as the poster’s already been sent to my favorite theater here in Nashville, I thought I would at least let everyone know where it stands. They had about 1100 entries to choose from.

Will be curious about your reactions once the update goes live!

I got mine in by the Jan 31st deadline. Just went back and checked the site today to see if they had announced anything, but saw the extension you are all referring to. I sent them an email to see what the status was, I’ll let you know what I find out. They were pretty good about replying quickly to emails I had sent before.

Hm…missed the deadline.

I thoroughly agree about having an actual contest where you progress through different rounds and get revisions and have an actual chance to see your work when you go see to the cinema! That would be a fantastic experience, and even give aspiring designers a handsome portfolio piece!

I do have one question, as i’m brand new to your site here, is there more contests like this going on currently?

PS. Great site, favorited the other day and started reading today…Definetly be stopping by more often. Take care.

I just thought of something else. I figured that the ones they got sucked (in their opinion) so they wanted to see if they could get any better ones. I guess that means I lost! Ah well…

I’m in the same boat as designwhore. I felt like there was something that I was waiting for but I couldn’t remember. And then I realized it was this poster contest, but it was delayed. I had to check the official rules to see if I was just missing something.

The delays and lack of info makes it seem like you are experiencing what it is like to work on a real film poster campaign — warts and all. :/
