The Vote Is On! Choose Your Favorite Dynamic Lighting Video

Glass Houses Top-downLast week, we enabled dynamic lighting on GameTest1, a testing environment for new releases of ROBLOX gameplay and ROBLOX Studio. In conjunction with the beta test, we launched a dynamic lighting video contest to see how builders leverage the much-anticipated feature – for both aesthetic and interactive purposes. We collected roughly 200 submissions, all of which are now on display on the contest website and waiting for you to show some love with your votes.

You can cast a vote for up to five entries. The voting period lasts through Monday, April 29th at 4:00 pm PT, so watch as many as you can and choose your favorites wisely. Don’t forget to leave comments of support, too.

Master of Light and Darkness Hat

On May 1st, we’ll announce the five, official winners — taking into consideration your opinion and our own judgment — on the contest website. These lucky cinematographers will receive the Master of Light and Darkness hat, pictured at right. We’ll also post a selection of the top entries here on the blog (and on the ROBLOX YouTube channel). In the meantime, thank you to everyone who tried out dynamic lighting and took the time to create and submit a video. It’s a significant undertaking, and we appreciate your effort.

If you submitted a video, make sure to let your friends know you’re looking for votes. The more you get, the more your video’s popularity will snowball. If you’re simply looking to watch some cool videos and vote, get to it!

And remember, this is just a warm-up for the ROBLOX Film Festival, which we’ll be launching in the near future.

We can’t resist. It just looks so nice.
