These some publishing company that collects stories that 55 words or less that show an adequate beginning, middle, end, and stands alone. If I can do that, five minutes is more than enough for a short. Besides, how many two hour movies could you watch there? Ever heard of a 55 word short?

I'm about 2800 km away so its too far for me also (that and I would need a passport, I think and it would take too long to get). Still, BBB is a fine movie. It would surely be in the running against other shorts (short films). By the way, the European definition of a 'short' is 1 to 15 minutes, the North American definition of a 'short' is 20 to 40 minutes, but especially in animation, they are much closer to the European definition. Most films made by Mack Sennett were 1 reel shorts. 1 reel is 1000 feet of 35mm film and at 24 frames per second lasts about 11 minutes. BBB is 10 minutes. Its the classic length of a 'short'.

Some of the stuff on the BBB DVD was painful. Harsh I know. But seriously, it's a 3D industry yes, but the audience is still human. So don't be afraid to crack a joke or a smile once in a while. Best of luck! I really hope they get a proper speaker.

When is Siggraph? "- Monday, two afternoon BoF sessions (we want to show artwork from attendees too, please contact me if you want to reserve a 5-10 minute slot)." I am working on a short film made with Blender...but I don't know if it will be done in time. Very cool! When is Siggraph?
