 * Cinemania 7 Judging Information**

Here are all the videos entered in this year’s Cinemania film festival. Please find below the judging matrix to see what you are judging and your fellow judges for that category. I have tried to limit each judge to two or three categories and put you in a category you may have some experience in. I have tried hard to have at least 5 judges per category.

All links to videos (on Youtube) and online evaluations (Google Forms) are found on the links to your right.

With that in mind, if you wish to evaluate another category as well (or all of them) feel free to do so. The more feedback for the students and the more numbers we have to average out for the winner the better.

Each video has its own Google form, please fill out each individual form and then add total score to the tally sheet (this will allow for quick averaging of each video and make it easy to determine winner). This is the first time we are trying this method of judging so please to write down your evaluations (can download forms below at bottom of this page) just in case and please ask questions if something is unclear. There will be a follow up survey and/or e-mail to help us make judging easier and/or more efficient in the future. Please disregard the instructions on the form to place final tally on the general tally sheet.

Your feedback is (in my opinion) the most important feature of Cinemania! Please feel free to give the students some praise, but also provide constructive criticism to help students improve their work (helps the teachers out too).

Each entry will receive a collated package with all spreadsheet information to review and reflect on. Judges names will be removed from student spreadsheet package.

Snakes in a School in the Shorts category has been banned from winning due to some members of the review committee feeling some of the staged violence was excessive so it cannot win but the students would still like feedback on it.

Thanks once again for lending your time and expertise to make this event not only a lot of fun, but a great learning experience.
