Media: average acceptance time.

[NathanaelBergenMagic]

Quick question: I'm new to the forums and wanted to ask:
Last week I submitted my newest street magic video. It said it would be reviewed before being displayed, but it's been almost a week and I've seen numerous videos being posted.
So, were those videos submitted awhile ago and are just *now* being published? Or is there something I did wrong, and my video won't be published.
Thanks

Submitted it to who? It would help if you gave more info

Oh, sorry. To the media section of Theory11. Specifically, street magic.

I'm not positive what is going on but I know of a few artists who have submitted Wire effects over 9 days ago and haven't heard anything good or bad regarding if their submission made it through the acceptance phase.

My guess is that there is a large amount of videos being submitted to the Media Section and the Wire and the turnaround window of 72 hrs. is probably not possible. Just a guess though. I could be completely wrong.

Hey guys,

While I personally don't deal much with the media section, I do know that it can get behind. It can frequently get backlogged when there are a LOT of submissions to it. I will check into this for you guys and see if we can get things moving a little quicker. I don't want you waiting that long.

Sorry about the delay.

Just checked into this. We try to review and approve or decline all Media videos within 48 hours. At this time, we have no submissions in our media section queue older than 48 hours. We only approve the best of the best, so if you submitted something longer than 48 hours ago and it is not up, it was likely not approved. We do not have a notification system for our Media section that tells you that your video is approved or declined and why.

Reasons that a video may not be approved:
Poor Video Quality
Flashing
Exposure
Inappropriate Language or Content

In addition to these filters, our Media review team will still only post what is, in their opinion, the most impressive submissions. If they feel it is mediocre in any way, it may be declined. I don't have access to specific reasons, but check your submission against all of these. If you can modify it to better fit what I have described, feel free to submit again.

Hope that helps.

phew....luckily I had you specify because I thought you were talking about the media as far as TV, Radio, Newspaper and things to promote yourself. I was going to type up something very long about getting in contact with the media and the reasons they haven't responded

That's the video, I thought it was good enough because it's actually street magic, not just webcam or filming myself outside.
Guess I was wrong.
Thanks for answering though.
I'll try to make a better video.

ps. Thanks for telling me that there's not a notification of declining, I didn't know that. I'll remember that before I make an entire thread about it.

It usually depends on the traffic. I once submitted a video like 2 weeks before it was put up there. So don't worry about it too much, but if it's not up much longer, then you can probably assume that they didn't accept it.

I also submitted a video myself and it probably didn't get accepted because it was like 4 days ago. I really would like Jonathan Bayme or Lyle Borders to please tell me why my video wasn't good enough and I'll try to improve in the future.
