M33M 2013 Winter has triggered the launch of new content at michiganmoviemakers.com: Major Awards verification and explanation page<\/a>, Micro Movie Marathon premise and objectives, and Dan Kelly’s comments on how things went at M33M 2013 Winter and what could be better.<\/p>\n

We had 24 entries in a variety of genres. The coveted M33M Major Awards were The Fulcrum of Heaven<\/strong>, What would Tesla Do?<\/strong> and Tall Blonde Girlfriend<\/strong>. The audience selected the Major Award winners using our tried and true Open Source Variant Australian Marble Balloting – which gives immediate feedback for all the entrants and makes identifying the winners a snap.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Without further eloquence, (of which this site is already well endowed, thanks to the iconoclastic self education of the misfit authors), we are delighted to present…<\/p>\n

The
\nMichigan Movie Maker Micro Movie Marathon
\n2013 Winter
\n<\/strong>Major Awards<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fulcrum of Heaven\u00a0 <\/strong>“Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world.” Freakin’ Archimedes… move the world, big whoop. If we’re getting ambitious, why not just lever heaven? Imagine a movie smack in the center of everything, a divine fulcrum by which, with the lever of our imagination, we could jostle the cosmos.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Ouroboros Escape<\/a>, Kirk Ciaglaski<\/a> and Scott Ciaglaski, 5 purple grey marbles, 9 total<\/p>\n

What Would Tesla Do?\u00a0 <\/strong> “Over One hundred years ago, a Serbian-American inventor by the name of Nikola Tesla started fixing things that’s weren’t broken.” For deep background on Tesla read theoatmeal.com,<\/a> meanwhile, here’s the Major Award metaphor. What would Tesla Do?<\/strong> recognizes pokey genius and the movie that delivers the goods without caring whether you even ordered any goods in the first place. A movie that is simply amazing without trying to be, without giving a hoot about what anyone else thinks. A movie that will end up alone and broke in a New York City apartment after a lifelong smackdown of mediocrity.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Shh…utter<\/a>, Mida Chu, 4 green marbles, 10 total<\/p>\n

Tall Blonde Girlfriend\u00a0<\/strong> Small minded people assert that blondes are ditzy, especially if they are tall and attractive. The Tall Blonde Girlfriend<\/strong> goes to the movie that is not only lovely to look at (or especially sweet on the ears) but in contrast to the dominant culture cliche is also clever, smart and packing serious special sauce. Ok, for parity’s sake could also be Tall Blonde Boyfriend<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Flash Samplings<\/a>, Lena Maude Wilson, 5 red marbles, 9 total<\/p>\n

An attempt was made to bring the cups back intact to document all the entries with over two marbles, but something happened in transit and a bunch of cups got dumped. Here’s the random marbles that escaped their cups, about 15 or so. The intact cups with two marbles or more are posted below along with a few cups reconstructed from borrowed memory.<\/p>\n
