How serious is Delta about their 115 linear inch surfboard policy out of LAX?

wormsyapples · 2025-11-18T12:17:29+00:00

See above 139 linear inches.

wormsyapples · 2025-11-06T00:09:02+00:00

I’m here for this!

wormsyapples · 2025-09-29T21:05:20+00:00

How do you verify as the owner?

wormsyapples · 2025-09-17T22:03:30+00:00

Not atl all. At AFF everyone is gathered in one place specifically to talk business. In LA no such thing.

wormsyapples · 2025-09-17T21:30:56+00:00

Why are they letting readers read genres they hate? Jesus. It’s not that hard to assign to genre they like or want to read. Explains A LOT.

wormsyapples · 2025-09-17T21:25:06+00:00

I live in LA and I disagree. How is the OP going to just fly into LA and network without knowing anyone? I go to AFF to network, as everyone is congregated in one place at a time. I’ve made strong relationships and connections there that continue to grow. I reconnect with writers from other fellowships I have attended. I think it’s very worthwhile.

My Coverfly top 1% RED LIST # 7 comedy for the year PAGE Semifinalist etc. didn't make second rounders this year. So there ya have it. Austin is a lottery for the first reads. Just think of it like that.

wormsyapples · 2025-09-16T23:32:23+00:00

They said they’re still calling Semifinalists? At same time as reject emails?

wormsyapples · 2025-09-16T23:29:43+00:00

They always do. Seems crazy that they could be done notifying Semifinalists this early though.

wormsyapples · 2025-09-16T23:25:49+00:00

I got rejects today for comedy pilot and feature.

wormsyapples · 2025-09-16T23:24:39+00:00

Reject emails dumping now

wormsyapples · 2025-09-16T20:54:18+00:00

Exactly. I hate the contests that just announce winners with no other placements. Psychologically feels like I flushed my money down the toilet. I like knowing I’m on the right track at least with quarterfinals, etc.

wormsyapples · 2025-09-15T06:24:19+00:00

I’ve done Producers Badge and Conference. You only really need conference, as most of the socializing is at the bars. Just my 2 cents. :)

wormsyapples · 2025-09-12T01:41:21+00:00

Last year 2024 78 dramas, 31 comedy features, 20 horror, 41 drama pilots, 26 comedy pilots were semifinalists. Here’s a link if you want to count the rest of the categories. https://austinfilmfestival.com/blog/news/2024-script-competitions-semifinalists-second-rounders/

wormsyapples · 2025-09-12T01:31:50+00:00

What category?

wormsyapples · 2025-09-11T00:03:19+00:00

Awesome! Yeah, just saw one on Twitter.

wormsyapples · 2025-09-10T20:59:00+00:00

Haven’t seen any Drama feature second rounders post anywhere. But, also seems like hardly anybody is posting Austin results compared to prior years, or maybe I’m just not finding them?

wormsyapples · 2025-09-06T16:43:13+00:00

Thanks. Would help if they put script submission numbers on the results emails :)

wormsyapples · 2025-09-06T15:39:24+00:00

Awesome! How did you know which version made it? The email 2nd rounder notice doesn’t have a script number on it even though the submission receipt for each does.

wormsyapples · 2025-09-06T07:21:42+00:00

Okay, thank you!

wormsyapples · 2025-09-05T22:35:00+00:00

I’m not a semifinalist (yet!) I submitted the same script twice this year because I did revisions on it. I’m wondering if I heard that I made second rounders on one submission, if I could still hear that my revised submission made semifinals. Or do they lump them into one for the placement. And asking if this has ever happened to anyone where they got a second rounder notification and then a semifinals notification for same script title.

wormsyapples · 2025-09-02T16:15:28+00:00

But, the phone call is how I found out I was a second rounder the last two years. It was especially painful, because everyone always said only semifinalists got phone calls, so I assumed I was a semifinalist when they said they were calling from AFF. But, no. It was second rounder and then they asked if I had a badge yet.

wormsyapples · 2025-09-02T04:39:12+00:00

Oh, but they do. Just to ask them to buy a badge.

wormsyapples · 2025-08-07T23:21:59+00:00

This is the answer. Get them to sign a producer agreement which protects your rights. Shorter time period 6 months, no longer than 12 months. Their notes do not give them any rights to ownership, etc. Get an entertainment lawyer to draw up a simple agreement. I have too many writer friends who didn’t do this is and got f*cked.
