http://www.64to1ff.com The 64 to 1 Film Festival is an online film festival and completely unique and one of a kind. The format for the competition is based off of the very successful NCAA Basketball tournament. 64 films will be pitted against each other- elimination style- through six rounds of judging. One set of judges will determine the rankings based on a complex point scale with the highest rated film taking the highest seed. Most would presume the highest seeded would be the odds on favorite to win, but there is a twist. The judges who rank the films 1-64 will not judge another film for the contest. Every round a new set of judges will come in and judge the films and they will not be given the seeds, as to avoid any psychological leaning toward any of the films. They will never know the actual seeds to be sure the playing field is kept fair the entire time. Each round will last one week (with updated brackets coming out every Monday) and proceed as follows: Round 1 (64): March 1, 2010 Round 2 (32): March 8, 2010 Round 3 (16): March 15, 2010 Round 4 (8): March 22, 2010 Round 5 (4): March 29, 2010 Round 6 (2): April 5, 2010 Round 7: April 12, 2010 – winner announced The winner will receive a cash prize and a few other surprise perks!
