Staff Blog / Weekend Project: Black Transitions
-
Yo Vimeo!
Time to announce our latest and greatest Weekend Project! Since our last two projects were somewhat light on the editing side, we decided to ask you guys to flaunt your knack for continuity and show us how you cut. Before I can go any further, though, please take a moment to watch this awesome short from our friends, French Cassoulet.
For this Weekend Project, we are looking for you to submit your own short film that only uses "black transitions."
We're putting an extra emphasis on creativity and originality for this project. As you already saw, French Cassoulet took a great concept and ran with it. We want to see you take that same concept and run in a completely different direction.
Since our last Weekend Project had such a great turnout, we're offering the same prizes as the last time, which means the winner will come away with a shiny new Plus account (for Basic users) or 25,000 HD Embeds (for Plus members.) The runner-up gets an extra 1 GB of upload capacity (for Basic users) or 10,000 HD Embeds (for Plus members.)
Your video can be any length and is due on Tuesday night at 11:59 PM. Also, make sure you add it to the Weekend Project Group.
Have a great weekend,
Sam
UPDATE:
Coming in a whopping four minutes before the deadline, this week's winner was last, but certainly not least. Fittingly, Adolfo Cantu-Villareal's video Offside is about another guy seriously running against the clock. This one's good for 25,000 HD embeds!
We also have two runners-up this week. Blackout by Saulo Valley and Death of Imagination by Stu. Both runners-up will receive an extra 1GB of upload capacity!
One last thing: We noticed that there may have been some confusion over the premise of this Weekend Project. Our original intent was for the videos to reinterpret the concept laid out in French Cassoulet's video. That said, we're sorry if we were not clear enough in our instructions and we will try harder in the future to make sure everything is clear, cut and dry.
Big thanks to ALL who submitted!

I guess I'll never use anything else than simple word to name people using Vimeo. Didn't know it was subject to conflict between staff and members.
Peace to everyone of you ;-)
I understood!
Let's get the work!
