Congrats. You guys so deserve this. Your layout is so clean and accessible, it’s easier on the eyes than most of the other media sites I visit. The mix between pro, and pro-curious commentators is solid too.

I voted for your blog when you sent out the email. I also looked at every other blog on the list, and only a couple came close but did not best nofilmschool in the quality and content in my opinion. Nofilmschool is honestly the best as far as I am concerned.

Your DSLR guide is great. I see it as the best way for a beginner to get a good handle of the issues of DSLR film making. It was not useful to me personally, but I appreciate the way the guide brings beginners up to speed, and I really appreciate your unbiased coverage of the DSLR industry.

The only way I could imagine that nofilmschool could be better would be for you to add advanced DIY guides for lighting, audio, motion control, wired & wireless follow focus etc. If you ever consider adding a section like this, I have a few ideas, and I have picked up a few tricks over the years.

Your upfront, no-BS approach and writing are a refreshing change from being “marketed” to or at, and the way of the future. Plus w/ the great DSLR guide you’ve given and continue to give away, it creates a certain debt of gratitude. (OTOH I’d drop this site if it sucked or became sleazy. PS, didn’t Bloom have a mega-super-ultra gear review guide up in the summer, that is nowhere to be found now? Pretty sure I didn’t dream that, my dreams are far more boring.)

PPS: How about a post on how your email list is costing you $180/mo? I know you can set up an automated list in a few hours for free, but perhaps you’re paying to not have your emails thrown into spam folders??

Thank you all for the kind words. I believe and hope NoFilmSchool will be an even better site in 2011 than it was in 2010!

Congrats, Koo! As a person who is totally committed to his craft and art, you are an inspiration to me. I am not even a film maker, yet I enjoy reading your blog because, as was said in an earlier comment, your blog is just as much about self-learning, sharing, and a life’s passion as it is about film-related stories. Your stories about media at large (particularly social elements of media, as this post is about) have come in handy with my own work.

I truly appreciate the time, effort you put into your site and the numerous things I have learned.

Giving away your book (which is a great read) earned you a lot of readers. A smart move. Congrats on the win.

Nice one you deserved to win both for the great things you share here and your motivation – it is inspiring!
I loved Westside too….. it was cool and if slow paced urban westerns shot in black-and-white don’t get bought by TV/Film companies then said companies are stuck in a very boring rut. Have you shown it to Clint? he he!

It’s easy enough to like a blog; it’s another to nearly cherish it for its ongoing contribution to your own career and literacy. Your blog inspires the second. This post is a fantastic example of its value. I really appreciate the quality and generosity of the information you share.

The whole contest might have been about numbers and popularity, but with your win, it was inadvertently about excellence, too.
