Well, heard back and didn't get anywhere, they said they'd be happy to see more sketches, I presume they said this to all the people whose sketches weren't used though.

How did everyone else get on?

I've heard nothing so far. That's a good sign right?

Er....

Message additional.

It wasn't a good sign. In the rejects pile as well.

Shortlist but no further.

Dan

Ive heard nothing

Well, I could be wrong about everyone being invited to submit more sketches in future! They did say they got more submissions than they expected, so things have taken longer, plus I fired off a quick email to find out what was going on.

I'll be interested to see what sketches did make it in.

Did you get an acknowledgment reply when you first sent in your script?

Yeah, why, didn't you?

Yeah I did, just nought since

Weird... Could be a good thing or could be a bad thing, you could always try chasing it up perhaps. I take it they said they'd get back to you? Did they give any indication whether they liked your sketces?

They prob don't have time to get back to everyone,and besides they know where to find me, won't be chasing up ;)

Yeah, got the 'invite to submit more sketches in future'. Presumed it went out to everyone who sent something in.

Probably not much merit in trying to determine if we got a better class of rejection e-mail!

I got the same. Still, it's a nicer rejection than a lot of rejections I get. And I get a lot.

Did anyone on the forum get the gig?

I sent off a couple of sketches a while back and received a manual (not automated) 'thanks, we'll read them and get back to you' message.

But I haven't heard anything since.

Not even the legendary 'invite to submit more sketches in future.'

I got my reply in the end :(
