Short Films: Viewing
- Can I remove an assignment I do not want or cannot view?
- Is there a solution to film viewing problems?
- What if I can't view the short film?
Yes. Click MANAGE in the header and click to the “Assignments” tab. Your SCREENPLAY, SHORT FILM, and SHORT STORY ASSIGNMENTS will be listed on this page if you have any. Beneath each assignment are links that allow you to review the assignment, remove the assignment or request another assignment. The Remove Assignment link will not be there if you are not eligible to remove an assignment. You are limited on how often you can remove an assignment based on your Participation Level.
Trigger Street Labs does not host the films but rather allows them to be embedded from 3rd party services like YouTube and Vimeo. If the user has failed to embed the file correctly, there may be cause to follow through with the steps listed below. Before doing so, please check the respective service that the video is hosted on and make sure that you can view the other videos on that site. If you can, there is a very good chance that the problem is with your computer or connection and not with the submission in question.
If you cannot open or view a submission, verify if it is a problem on the your computer. Check if anyone else is able to view it by looking to see if there have been any previous reviews posted. If it appears that others have been able to view or open the submission, verify that you are using the correct player or reader to view the file and that the viewer or player is working properly. For short films, the best thing to do is to check the official site hosting the video (YouTube or Vimeo) that you are having problems with, which should have links to test and troubleshoot your player. There can be other conflicts including firewalls, privacy and security settings, so be sure to fully check that these aren't the source of the problem. Once you are absolutely sure the problem isn't due to anything on your end, you can either notify the member who uploaded it if they have a CONTACT ME button on their Profile Page, or report it to the Hall of Justice. If the submission is an assignment DO NOT review it. Remove the assignment (one of the reasons this feature is available) and then request another assignment.
