No Dialogue.
Dialogue: "an exchange of words, normally sharing a common language. Can be short, or can extend to a conversation. Does not include sounds created without the intention of lingual meaning, such as coughing, farting, dieing sounds." NO

Sound Effects: "sounds created by an object that have no lingual meaning at all, or if it has it was not intentional"  YES

Music: "a melodic group of sounds in a specific timing, meant to please the human ear." YES

Text: "a form a writing. Not spoken dialogue. Not the same meaning as subtitles." YES

All definitions made by me!!! Right now without looking anywhere. Helpful? DTVision?

Sean, in the first scene of my film he's having a nightmare. It includes text, does the mod element have to be in the text?

I like that, with channel do you mean your youtube channel?

Anyways, I'm writing my screen at the moment. I have an idea and I'm turning it into a screenplay at the moment. Nothing definite yet though. I don't know if this idea will make a good screenplay.

Ugh, just accept them LegoDudez, they must appear in every scene, so just put a red brick touching a yellow brick, or put a gosh darn Q somewhere.

OK guys, change of plan. I'll actually be setting up a topic for it (Been told I should). So I'll have a few interviews, news, and the like there. Update you with the link in a second.

Are we allowed to use notes... like someone holds a sign up that has words on it?

A good idea, I was just about to propose that.

I have two questions:

1. If we have music with dialogue would that disqualify me?
2. Do you count a 'Shhh' as  dialogue?

Yep, that's right, music with dialog would disqualify.

Was a bit surprised to see a mod element had been added, during the night, after the fact, though I did want one in the first place.    Here's hoping people see it.  Sorry for this sort of thing happening, but I simply didn't have time to run the contest myself right now and I'm optimistic Sean will do a good job with it overall.  It's basically like BRAWL or THAC, guys, though he's simplified it a bit by not requiring it to be visible in every shot.

I could maybe get my band to do it. I can't guarantee anything but if you PM me what you want I guess I could give it a try.

I think I have an idea.

For anyone interested, Cognizance is a great example of a no dialogue film. Check it out if you haven't already.
