UNmarked at the Malaysian Video Awards?

Was looking for more film festivals to put 'UNmarked' into and was surfing around the Animation World Network site for a list of countries and festivals. Sadly enough, the Malaysian Video Awards or even MALAYSIA didn't show up in the countries list. Which prompted me to navigate to www.mva.com.my which is the site for the Malaysian Video Awards. I have tried submitting a collaborative piece during my years at the LimKokWing Institute of Creative Technology but fell short. Looking back now, I can see why. The film was shit. I'm surprised the damn thing won the Sony Voices of the New Millennium award.

Okay now...5 years farther down the track. 5 years more of film making, storytelling and animation experience. I will now enter 'UNmarked' (which has so far won 4 awards, nominated as finalist in 2 animation fesitvals and screened in 2 other international festivals) into the MVA. Lets see how this attempt fares then. Heck...I know this film was done while I was in Australia but I'm still every bit a Malaysian aren't I? So I'm just going to fill up the forms, duplicate a DVD and send the bloody thing to Malaysia by courier so that it can arrive before the 15th of October. Hopefully it'll knock some socks off. Fingers crossed.
