I was wondering that too
It's a REALLY good video and there were a lot of votes to make it the winner but there were too many glitches to make it no 1. It's possible that you can't see them on Youtube but in the source video it was very noticable. Probably if he removed some of the weaker scenes and used the extra time to render it with AA there would have been a good chance it would made the top 3 at least.
The scenes and the filming was done really well. I think it was the best entry from a pure filmic perspective but wasn't the best showcase of Lumion. As a movie it was really good but it had too many glitches to be a good showcase.
There were so many good entries. If you look at the honorable mentions there are many movies that could easily make it to the top 3. It's a tough decision. Everyone has his own view on things and some people focus on one point and other people focus on other points so what's best is also a matter of opinion. In the end we chose winners that combined overall quality, style, made impact and displayed skill.
Some of the honorable mentions are missing by the way
I Think it's a bug in the gallery software and we are working on it.
Check out this one for example:
