New video compilation COL2005

I've got some mates who are interested in making some music for COL6. If people are stuck for music, particularly in London, might be an option...

I think there should be a $1 USD entry fee, or something like that. Then, everyone who submitted, whether or not they were accepted can vote and the winner can get a HoP gift certificate in the amount of however many submissions. That way the people who get to vote are the ones who contributed, which is fair, and I do not know ANYONE who would go through the trouble and expense of making an entry and not being able to drop 1 extra dollar. For all those folks in England it less than a pound! That way there can be a competetive spirit, and a prize, and still not be a fiscal downfall for Malcolm.

I am not sure on the policy on multiple submissions, but anyone submitting multiple entries would pay for eac submission, but only get one vote.

What does everyone else think? I think this is a good compromise, and I knwo that I wouldnt mind sending an extra buck in with a submission, I cant imagine anyone would...

finally got back to a comp with a good connection to the internet that didn't kill out on me. I'll be sending off my submission to New Zeland sometime soon.

Only one more moneth to go!!!!

oh ben, how much money would you pay?

It was sad to see so much fire in the last COL.

I guess COL has different meaning to many of you.
To me it means...
Circles = type of motion with a pivot point & groups
Light = Inspiration & so we can see you & gathering point

I personally do not want to just see Fire

That's a really nice way to look at it

I finished my entry off yesterday; it's got plenty of non-fire poi, as well as some fire ropes, a bit of fire-club juggling and the soundtrack is me on my home-made flute.

Once again, editing time has been a bit limited, but I'm happier with the final product than I was with last years.

dan theres some things you cant put a price on

ive got a nice little sequence sorted all i need now is a wig and some meg like clothes ........

Show us your belly ben

they are called abs thank you very much

I agree personaly i would have loved for some more unformal socks spinning but with some crazy tech in. Thats just becase i prefere to have my mind expanded instead of just the safe tricks that can pulled of with chains in comparison that is. But still it was a good vid.

when will we know who made it and who didn't? Or do we just have to wait until the release and see what happens?

Yes, please let there be more LED and tails etc, it will help break it up. Somehow don't think I'm good enough for this year, maybe next year.

holy sock poi batman?

well, I was going to send in this fire footage of me thrashing aorund in water like a drunk pirate, but after malcolm's mild sugestion... maybe it's time to nexus....

Don't worry ben, I found a shirt to wear... now where are those pants? All I want is a pair of pants!

...he...m.m.mmust have....pp.ppant!! (S)

Why's it called "a pair of pants" when there are only one?

And why is bra singular and panties plural?

I found some tights.... they are nice and umm... tight.....?

wow, that paperwork for submiting a video was complicated huh? I hope I got all the answers right....

i was really really really wanting to enter this but with exams I haven't had time to make an entry. sorry I'm sad. But I will be happier when I see you all spin .....

^ Same with mine.

But actually I got some decent footage which I will be placing on HoP soon free of charge.

i never even got started

aw that sounds awesome....really wish id a) seen this post earlier and (b) owned a camcorder....id have been well up for submitting an entry.... would be cool to buy a copy and see all you guys spinning though

I was part of the 1%... video sent yesterday , wasn't my bestest of spins, but it was a nice night and loverly place to film.

very good ol'boy!

welp, i submitted the vid of myself + darkpoet, express to nz.
*waits patiently*

Do we have an ETA as to when we will know who made it. I'm getting really nervous, and I sort of want to know who's in and who's not.

*starts bouncing off the walls*

thanks
