Posts: 661 		Hello there

Please can you confirm that it is ok to use Audacity software to assist in the creation of the pre-production soundtrack. I know the rules say you must only use Muvizu, but my understanding of this is that you cannot use any post-Muvizu-production software because you need everything encapsulated within one or more .set files so that the winning entries can be re-assembled at the required definition.

Please can you confirm that this is the case as my PC spec makes it difficult to overload the Muvizu application with multiple assets.

Many thanks

Using Audacity is fine - anything you import is saved along with the .set file and can be accessed by other users - so feel free to splice your audio track together before importing it.

Best of luck,
Jim.

I have just been informed that, due to popular demand, the rules of the competition are being revised to allow post-production.

There will be a news update put on the site later on detailing the specific changes.

Cheers,
-Jim.

With limited time left and holidays to take I'm not sure whether allowing post-production is good news or bad news!

All the best

One more quick question re the competition (can you tell I'm getting desperate)

Can you enter animations previously posted onto Youtube and/or the Muvizu website or does it have to be a new animation "not seen"

Thanks again

Mick

I have just double-checked and you can submit videos that you have already made, but we would ask that if you didn't upload them in 1280x720 resolution could you please do so, as the higher the resolution the better it will look on a cinema screen .

Take care,
-Jim

Hi Mick,

I have just been informed by the Raindance people that any submissions to their festival must be unpublished and as such can't have been on our website before.

We only found that out this morning, so if you are going to submit a video for Raindance you will need to mark it as private so that it doesn't get published on the site.

Sorry for the confusion.

Take Care,
-Jim
