As soon as I send mine in I'm going to make mine public. I'm still working on the application though.

To be honest, I won't be submitting an entry video this year. More important matters which I have to attend to lately, in conjunction with a lack a time/footage to currently work with, have impeded me from trying to obtain a spot to compete this time around. Hopefully I can improve quite a bit in several key areas (primarily cardio and lower-body strength) for an ANW7 entry; I hope to record training footage occasionally in the meantime for preparing a good submission video for next season. Nevertheless, if possible I'd still like to go to the Northeast regional qualifiers to meet a few of you guys in-person, as well as watch it live (and, if I'm extremely lucky, get to run the course anyway as a walk-on ).

Good stuff. I kinda wish I gotten or at least had some footage of me doing some obstacles. I just focus on trying to stand out (well, I think I will) with my training and did stuff a little different.

Also question for first time applicant, when do they usually contact people about their entry? Is it usually soon or after the deadline has passed?

Also question for first time applicant, when do they usually contact people about their entry? Is it usually soon or after the deadline has passed? Depends on your region. Last year I got a call back when most other regions were done filming.

Well both times they've done regions, I've been in the Northeast region, not sure when exactly that's being filmed or where it's going to be

I seem to remember last year some getting called really early, but for most I think it was 1-2 weeks before their region filmed. Hopefully this year they are better about it so people have more time to plan travel and time off. Once they announce the cities and dates you might be able to email casting to ask when they will call for your region.

In ANW4 they called a week before your region's scheduled film date. Last year they called 2 weeks before. So this year for the Northeast I'd guess right around 2 weeks after the Venice tryouts.

Well, I just got this email just now and I think they were trying to contact me by phone as well. Then again, no one left a voicemail when they called.
Nevermind, I guess the first video didn't work for some reason
Not for sure if this is a sign of them not having enough (people to cast) or what.

I think its a sign of technical problems if anything. What format and codec are you encoding in? Xvid4psp is a good conversion program if thats the issue.

My first vid I saved as a window format video since I was using Movie Magic. I re-watched it and it played fine when I submitted it. The second one (they got this one) I just saved as a MP4 format file when I re-download it off Youtube (I was at work when they contacted me).
Now the waiting game.

I feel like this is pretty much the exact process of being involved in ANW casting.

Soooooooooooooooooooooo, I got a called this morning and just checked my voicemail just now. I'm not for sure what's going on to be honest, but it seems they're looking for more females at this point (at least for Southwest region). I'm not for sure if the females needs to submit anything at this point since they just need to hit a quota.
