OMFF

OMFF finalists are up, and as I happen to be one of the judges, I will become intimately familiar with all of the films and people in the nine categories.

So, to recap the process.

1. Nominations accepted from the community at large. Nine categories. Nominations finalized.
2. Short lists derived from #1 accepted from the community at large. Short lists finalized (3 in each category).
3. Judges decide order (1, 2, 3) for each category. All six judges contribute to final order (less finalists than the total # of judges means hopefully no ties).
4. Winners announced.

We're in phase #3 right now. Winners announced in May. There will be an awards ceremony in SL on May 10th.

Best of luck to all the nominees and finalists.

Note: There will be a lot of watching to do. Hours and hours. I hope you all appreciate my sacrifice.
