Dear all,

Please use ftp to submit your project, the FTP's information is as follows

IP : 140.112.29.184 (192.168.1.184 if you are under the CMLAB domain)

id/pw : vfx2012/cyy_starwar2012

P.S. For security consideration, please choose the mode "FTPES (FTP over explicit TLS/SSL)" and accept the certificate


The submission format is similar :

Your submission will need to be stored in a compressed file named after your student IDs; for instance, D99944001_D99922002.zip or R99944003.rar. Both formats, rar and zip, are acceptable. According to the requirements on the asignmment webpage, this compressed file should contain 3 directory

"artifact" : the final composite video. Only one compressed video in common codec! Four video formats are acceptable: avi, mp4, mpg and mov! To avoid any display problem on youtube, avi format is more recommended.

"raw" : the raw footage before inserting CGI. Please upload only the clips with CGI.

"report" : (optional) Both html/pdf format are acceptable, details are described on the webpage.


Please note that
1. In your video, there should be at least one composite clip (with CGI) shooted by yourself!
2. Please follow the requirements on video format and codec.
3. The delay of submission will be counted in seconds, not days. That means if your submission exceeds a few seconds, it will not be recorded as "one day delay".
4. To avoid the network traffic jam, please try to submit before the deadline.
5. If you need to update the assignment after submission, your new submission should be named by "version"; for example, D99944001_D99922002_v2.zip for the 2nd submission. TA will only take the latest one as your final result.

If you have any question, please feel free to contact TAs.

Sincerely yours,
VFX TA
