The Team Film Challenge (TFC) (formerly the Digital Open) is an online tournament run by DIHQ in the fall and the spring.


A few Team Film Challenge facts:

  • TFC tournaments are the only virtual tournaments we have at this time
    • teams submit one or more videos as their solution
    • these tournaments are associated with the affiliate DI Virtual (affiliate 800)
      We could set up additional sessions if needed.  None TFC tournaments should not be added to the DI Virtual affiliate.
    • fall teams are part of the fall session (they are associated with the Fall region of the affiliate DI Virtual)
    • spring teams are part of the spring season (they are associated with the Spring region of the affiliate DI Virtual)
  • The challenge is implemented as an instant challenge in the Resource Area, the Mobile Client and the Scoring Program
    • teams are marked as doing Challenge A but their is no team challenge
    • team numbers have an affiliate code of 800
    • need to use the Classic Scoring Program to score the tournament
      For the Web Scoring Program to support the TFC challenge, the WSP would need to support no team challenge for a team.
  • Fall teams can compete in the spring tournament
    • the restriction is that the Fall Teams cannot submit a new solution
    • we enforce this restrictions by placing such teams in the submitted state for their forms
