I'll soon be posting some food-for-thought comments about movie-making by newcomers, part of which address the fact that, with the exception of 3 or 4, most of the IL-2 Movie-makers of the ‘glory days’ of IL-2 movie-making (2004-2009) have long retired from the flight sim hobby, or certainly from the movie-making aspect thereof...

Additionally, as mentioned by someone on another Forum website: with Barfly, Biltongbru, Monty Dan, and Joe-90 on the Judging Panel, a high percentage of the experienced 'professional' level 'front-runners' are "scratched' from the ticket/competition. It's wide open for Newcomers!

And...the prizes are the best ever offered! With more to come. Stay tuned.

I think anyone who has even dabbled with using the trk recorder and Fraps, etc., will have a shot at winning. And..there is no rush! The 90-day duration of the competition will allow lots of time and opportunity for learning, researching, asking Questions on this sub-forum, trial and error, referral to tutorials, even dumping one's entire work file and re-starting from scratch [that can happen], and ultimately creation of a very competitive product/Movie.
