Watch them all then vote in the poll above to have your say in the Peoples Choice award for 2009. Winners will be announced on 10 March 2009 AEST.


WTF is SubsimMachFest? It is our very own short film festival! Welcome to the first Annual Subsim Machinima Short Video Festival. Contenders for the awards will be posted on http://au.youtube.com/user/SubsimMachFest I'm looking for the best 7 minute machinima videos containing a submarine that you can create.

Being Subsim we need a theme for our vid fest and of course it is submarines. It doesn't matter if you don't use a sub sim to make your vid but in the 7 minutes you have to include at least one submarine whether it is simulated or otherwise.

So all you budding machinima makers, crank up your skills for a chance to win one of the following awards:The envelope please:
  1. Best of the Fest - U-Boat Capt hat won by Fate by Mr. Fleck
  2. Best Comedy - U-Boat Video won by Dolphin by Mr. Fleck
  3. Best Drama - SH3 recognition manual autographed by the developers (Generously supplied by Fatty) won Fate by Mr. Fleck
  4. Best Direction - U-Boat Clock won by Riding the Waves by Torpo 653
  5. Best Cinematography - U-Boat Video won by Riding the Waves by Torpo 653
  6. Best Editing - U-Boat Video won by Meeting with History by Chisum
  7. Best use of sound - Subsim crew T-Shirt won by Tie: U979 Parts 1 & 2 by 2ndBestKiller
  8. Peoples choice - Subsim Battle Mug won by Fate by Mr. Fleck
Congratulations and well done to all. Iceman and Fincuan will receive a gift for entering. Both good entries but there were just others better this time around. Keep working on an entry for next year. You never know...

Mr. Fleck your entry Fate was superb and a well deserved winner of the Capt's cap. It had drama and suspense as well as great imagery and camera work. Dolphin kind of won the comedy award by default as there were no other comedies entered but was still a good short which I got a laugh out of.

Torpo, I really likes the way this was put together and it had a great feel to it from the opening to the end. Great camera work, use of lighting and sound. All round great effort!

Chisum, not strictly submaine but I really like the editing job you did splicing tegether the stills and the game footage with the text and sound. Another solid effort.

2ndBestKiller, I really like the use of the Das Boot sound track in this effort. Great work!

Winners please make your acceptance speeches below. That just about wraps up the festival for this year. Post your interest in participating next year in any form, here so I can get an idea if this is worth doing again.

To receive your prizes please PM me with your details for delivery.

Until next year...

The rules for entries are simple:
  1. All entries must be received by 5pm AEST (Sydney, Australia) on1 March 2009. Any entries received after this time will not be considered.
  2. All entries must be less than 7 mins long and must contain a submarine, simulated or otherwise. Other than that I don’t care what games or tools you used to create your entry.
  3. All entries should have ending credits with: "Dive into the Web's #1 Submarine and Naval Resource: SUBSIM.com"
  4. Entries can be mailed on digital media or made available to me to download. To notify me of your entry by PM or e-mail. PM me to obtain my e-mail address.
  5. Individuals may submit as many entries as they wish
  6. All entries being considered for an award will be posted by me on the SubsimMachFest youtube channel.
  7. All entries must be your own work although using material from other sources is allowed as long as it is properly credited. I have no interest in holding the rights to the videos other than the right to post them on the SubsimMachFest site.
  8. All content must comply with the posting rules for Subsim, so no porn, racial or political vilification or abuse of any sort will be considered valid.
  9. This is my film festival and I am the judge so if you have any complaints about my judging talk to the hand cos it’s my festival and the entries have to please me.
  10. As the judge I cannot enter the competition in any way shape or form.
Post here if you are interested in taking part or know someone who would be. Any questions post em here also.

Good to see some interest coming in already. I'll be looking for original engaging and entertaining storytelling inside the 7 mins, so no vids of you cat sleeping whilst you play DW or SH3 or 4!

I'm also working on getting some sort of prizes lined up, so stay tuned and good luck!

I love the idea, but I don't know jack about making videos. Where can I learn?
I'm especially unfamiliar with FRAPS and other in-game recording software.

You should have told me that BEFORE I made a 18 min long video

Anyway, what exactly does "Best Cinematography" mean (sry english isnt my native language)? Is it similar to direction or editing?

I hope I can come up with another idea, but to be honest I wont have too mucg time the nxt few months, pitty.
