Posts: 81 		For those who are interested, I hold a competition every year for film makers called the Harb40 Passion Competition. This year's competition is going to be bigger and better than ever. I made a Facebook Groups page for updates and discussions for anyone who has Facebook access, Harb40 Passion Competition Facebook Group. The official submission point will be on the TMOA Forums later this year. Keep your eyes and ears open for more info.

Welcome to Muvizu, and thanks for telling us about your competition. There are some pretty good prizes!

It's a little confusing though, as you've posted it here on the Muvizu forum, but there's no mention of Muvizu or the Unreal Engine in the "Engine" category - could this be updated?

For those of you who don't have Facebook, here is the info (copied and pasted it from FB).


"2010 Passion Competition
Rules and GuidelinesPassion is a concept that has been used in philosophy. It is different from the current popular connotation of passion which is associated with notions of romance and which is generally seen as a positive and good emotion. The philosophical notation, in contrast, is identified with an innate or biologically driven emotional states such as anger, greed, lust or the other deadly sins.


The Seven Deadly Sins


1. Lust is usually thought of as excessive thoughts or desires of a sexual nature.
2. Gluttony is generally thought of as over-indulgence or over- consumption to the point of waste. Most commonly associated with food.
3. Greed is, like lust and gluttony, a sin of excess. However, greed is applied to a very excessive or rapacious desire and pursuit of wealth, status, and power.
4. Sloth can be classified as laziness or the failure to utilize one’s talents and gifts.
5. Wrath may be described as inordinate and uncontrolled feelings of hatred and anger. Feelings of anger can manifest in different ways, including impatience, revenge, and vigilantism.
6. Envy, although similar to lust, is largely associated with material goods. Those who commit this sin resent that another person has something they perceive themselves as lacking, and wish the other to be deprived of it.
7. Pride, considered the original and most serious of the seven deadly sins, is identified as a desire to be more important or attractive than others, failing to acknowledge the good work of others, and excessive love of self.
The task at hand will be to make a film using two (2) or more of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Posts: 81 		You are correct Emily, last year the competition was mainly limited to the iClone, Moviestorm and TMU communities. This year the competition is expanding into the Muvizu, IMVU, The Sims and Second Life communitities also.

I linked the Official announcement from last year so those who were unaware of the competition could get a sense of what it is about. The 2011 competition will take place later this year. The official theme of the competition will be posted with the official announcement around August. Once again, Sony Software, Reallusion and Moviestorm have agreed to sponsor the competition and they have donated software for prizes.

I just wanted the Muvizu community to know that there are other parts of the machinima community out there and other contests/competitions that they can enter. I will post more information on this year's competition as it becomes available.

Posts: 346 		Just to clarify - these are the details from LAST YEAR'S competition.

It was intended to give people an idea about the previous competition, the 2011 competition will be held later this year and more details will be posted as they come available.

The competition will start around September and the theme, guidelines, prizes and where to submit will be officially posted in August.

Hopefully Harb40 will update us as and when he has more info.

Cheers,

Em!
