Media Section Questions

[Trevor87]

Hi everyone!

My name is Antonio, I'm from Naples (Italy) and yesterday I made my account here on Theory11. Some of you might already know me because of my videos on YouTube, my account name there being "rafelez". I'm a card magician and I'm a great fan of Darwin Ortiz's material as well as Andrew Wimhurst's, Michael Vincent's, Derek Dingle's, Edward Marlo's and so on. Yesterday morning I submitted about 10 videos of mine to the media section but they are yet to appear there. Now, I read the rules of the media section and I think that my videos don't break any of them. I've got 2 questions for all of you, seasoned Theory11 users:

1. How long does it usually take to the mod team to approve a video?
2. If a video is rejected will you receive a notification about that?

Thanks in advance,

Antonio

I quote from the media submission section:

"All decisions on whether a video is posted or not is up to our media section moderators and they are always slammed with submissions to review. That said, all of which look for the same criteria: standouts. A video may be good-- a video may be great. But in order to be posted, there must be something about it that catches our eye. "

Here is a link that should help answer some of your questions about our media section http://www.theory11.com/media-guidelines.php

Hope that helps.

I've already read this part, thanks anyway.
Maybe I just have to wait, who knows...

it can take from a few hours to a day or 2 to never.
they wont contact you if you dont get a video accepted, if you do, it'll be on the front page with the other featured videos.

Please remember before the moderators can accept or reject the video. Your video is pushed into the Theory11 filter system, where your video is compressed and transported to the Theory11 miniature checkout bin where all videos are compressed and squeezed to see the strength of the video. Then the video is uncompressed and compressed again to be teleported to the Theory11 checking chamber where all videos are scanned for magic fairy dust. Not only that, it goes through the last stage where it is then placed on a hamster... Yes your video is then carried by a hamster to travel to the Theory11 headquarters where the moderators can finally uncompress the video and watch it for their pleasure, then they can decide to accept or reject.

Quite a long process you see.

Ok, in simple terms:

1. It takes between a few hours up to several weeks, depending on how busy the team is. If they've got a lot on, they'll take longer.
2. No.
