I sent an audio clip before the deadline. Do you still have it?
Cheers,
BillÆ
Yes.. Was it supposed to have any words or video? |

I'm curious how you thought it was audio only? I'm not trying to be a putz, but with nearly everyone (the few that actually did something) essentially NO ONE followed the directions.
Submit audio, video, or photo with a caption, or you holding a piece of paper with writing on it, or a graphic, etc... BE CREATIVE in accordance with the following.
Each submision may only be THREE-FIVE SECONDS LENGTH !!! Shorter is better and I suspect most will end up between two and three seconds which is perfect. It can also be a still photo or graphic or just an audio clip as well.
It should say or infer something like "Thank You" or "Welcome Back Ovation" or "Happy 50th Ovation" or "Best Wishes Drum Workshop" or something along those lines.In a later post I actually gave an example. I would love it if someone could write a better description. Something similar to my selfie video is essentially what I figured everyone would do and was hoping to get.... but I obviously speak a foriegn language and would truly appreciate the help on this. I think it would be a wonderful gift and a fun project... 100's of clips of voices saying Thank you in some form for the folks responsible for bringing Ovation back. I assumed I would get some photos and audio clips as well which is fine for the filler and transitions... now I have plenty of filler and transistions and NO content. Well, almost no content.. A couple of people sent stuff that I can use for some content... but nowhere near enough to fill a few of minutes worth.

Location: Minneapolis, MN | I was going by the original instructions. You may have made additions since then, but I'd have to see the first version to say for certain. Ok, I'll make a new audio clip. It will be audio again as I know that the varying video formats and qualities will affect the final cut. I still love the clip I sent you; it's my ringtone now. Maybe throw it in somewhere...

Those are the only instructions ever posted. The link is at the beginning of this thread, but here it is again.

Again, not trying to be difficult and I will absolutely be using the clip you sent. But apparently no one understood, I guess I should have just said "Video Selfie saying something along the lines of thank you or congratulations to Ovation or DW" use your own words.... Maybe now that I have, some more will start coming in. My bad..

Thank you for the clarity. Me not read good, so simple better. Really, I have no idea why my ability to follow instructions was absent...

I appreciate you engaging in this. And trust me, I have enough of an open ego to realize if no one understands the directions, it's NOT their fault, it's mine. I'm just looking for a way to get this project done in spite of myself I guess.

Location: When?? | Miles, this sounds like a great project. The original post and request was made months before I became a member, and I read where the cutoff date was December 31st.. but now, coming up on mid April, I see there is still talk about building it. Should I assume that you are still seeking submissions?? |
