what's the point in putting other artists down on forums just because you don't like their work

I don't get this mindset where it's 'bad form' to criticise other peoples work and that you should only go around congratulating everyone for fear of causing offence. You should either learn to learn from criticism or ignore it.

You didn't have to enter the comp to be entitled to have an opinion on the work, or even be a VJ for that matter. More importantly, it's not piss-taking we're talking about here, but genuine responses to the work.

If you can't stand criticism, don't do anything creative - and to Inside Us All's credit they could, and defended their work without going 'how dare you criticise us'

No offence I just think you're wrong there

Rules and regulations at the bottom of the aplication..........

Why not stand up for yourself, get yourself counted and actually enter these things?

Did anyone else see all the other entries before deciding the work by Inside Us All is not that great by their standards?

Anyway, point over...

Where can we see these other entries this is the first year none have been posted on the web? Last year vj's.net put a selection up on their site.

If that's the case how on earth did this win?

The rule is a bit ambiguous however...

2. Your entry must be of original material and no longer than six (6) minutes in duration per track (unless entering the DJ & VJ genres) with a maximum of three
(3) tracks

It's not clear whether you're excused from having to use original music and/or video OR excused form the 6 minute restriction (OR both). Confusing to say the least.

I think the work was good and I'd like to know if they had seen Carlos Rodriguez's "A SYMPHONY IN IMAGES" http://www.sidff.org/symphony.html as they did use a lot of similar clips. If people didn't have different tastes the world would be a very boring place.
