Topic: BiM Celebration Contest Results!
After substantial deliberation, Nathan Wells, Zach Macias, Doug Vandegrift, and I came to a consensus for judging the entries to the BiM Celebration contest. The quality of entries was high, and it wasn't easy for us to decide how to rank the entries, but we worked to come as close as we could to a consensus.
Without further ado, here are the winners:
1st Place
jay - The Journey
2nd Place
PushOverProductions - 15 Second Party in a Crate
3rd Place
Galen5055 - First Contact
We also ranked the rest of the top 10 entries. Again, it was difficult to pick a top ten and arrive at a consensus.
4. brickelodeon - Maturity
5. sillypenta - The Thief
6. Twickabrick - Good Coffee
7. AquaMorph - Flowers for Elizabeth
8. brickcrazy - When No One's Looking
9. END films - Celebrations
10. JonnDthunDer - BiM Celebration Film
Thank you to everybody who entered the contest. Congratulations to the winners, and to all those who completed entries. All the entries will be available on DVD & Blu-ray as part of the BiM Collection, available only through pre-order via the BiM Documentary Kickstarter!

Because the judges had a wide range of opinions about the films, we decided not to attempt a consensus writeup about the entries. Judges are free to voice their individual opinions on entries either in this thread or in the films' respective releases forum threads.
