Darkness and Light Contest

The Darkness and Light Contest is a brickfilming contest hosted by Philip Heinrich and Nathan Wells in 2015 on Bricks in Motion. The theme of the contest centered around darkness and light, both as a storytelling element, and a visual element like film noir and chiaroscuro.

History
The contest was announced on Bricks in Motion on June 1, 2015. The deadline is September 1, 2015. Rules were modeled after the twelfth Twenty-four Hour Animation Contest rules, and focus on dissuading entries that used existing, commercial intellectual property, and also disallowed entries with excessive violence, language and drug and sexual references. The minimum time limit was one minute, and there was no maximum time limit.

Judging and Prizes
Judges included brickfilmers Philip Heinrich, Nathan Wells, Dylan Woodley, and Maxime Marion, and guest judge Maverick Moore, a filmmaker. Prizes were provided by Dragonframe and Brickstuff, who sponsored the contest, and an anonymous donor.

Winners
The winners will be determined in September of 2015.
