When will you update the shorts categories for the 84th awards?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the cool blog!
Hi Sarah, Thanks for checking out my blog.
ReplyDeleteI'm currently still in the early stages of developing the site, so right now I am trying to fill in first predictions for all of the "TBA" lines that you see over on the right. This will hopefully keep me from making any hasty judgments about the current year while Venice, etc. is still in progress.
For the shorts, there are three qualifying festivals in September: Venice, Ottawa and the Nordisk Panorama. So I'm thinking that as soon as I have results from those I'll post an updated ranking.
Are there any of the short films in particular that you've seen or are interested in?
Thanks again!
Just a quick note that new predictions are up for this category. You can see them at http://nevertooearlymoviepredictions.blogspot.com/2011/10/84th-oscar-animated-short-updates-2011.html
