The lovely 2008 award graphics were made by Andrea of The Art of Vidding Awards.

Tuesday, 03 March 2009

Reviews and awards have been posted. We always expect a very high level of competition at The Fourth Wall, as we're seeing what each vidder feels is his or her best work from the past year. This year, not only was the cutoff point especially brutal, there were many vids left out for other reasons. There were several that we both agreed deserved recognition, but there simply wasn't a category at The Fourth Wall under which they fit. Neither innovation, music use, nor the overall vidding category honored what those vids did best, so they were left out. Other vids were very strong in all three categories, but not strong enough in any *one* of the three to make our shortlists. We'd also like to clarify that when judging a vid's music use, we put equal weight on how the vidder uses both music and lyrics. This was a very difficult judging process and no one should feel like we didn't like their vid just because it doesn't appear on a shortlist here. In fact, each of us has personal favorite entries don't appear among the winners. All of that said, we obviously feel that the vids that we are honoring here are uniformly fantastic and are all among the best vids of 2008. Thank you again for entering, and we hope to see you next year.
