Anime Los Angeles 2012 AMV Contest - NOW WITH WINNERS!!!

[MikalSaltveit]

Would it be a problem if I sent one entry in now and another entry later? I just want to make sure that's not a problem because I have one entry ready now and one that's not finished yet.

No problem at all, with the minor exception that entries received after December 10th will not be featured in the intro mash-up videos. It has occurred to me that we may end up featuring videos in the intros that are not in the contest. I want to make it clear now that this will not disqualify a video from being resubmitted to the next year contest, and the only reason this would occur would be in the case where the creator sent two videos in the same category, and the video we received after the 10th was of much higher quality.

We are trying hard this year to get as many things done ahead of time, while giving potential-contestants as much time to submit.

Okay. I've got my entries emailed!
There is one more video I'm hoping to finish but I wanted to make sure these ones were in before December 10th.

[Shin-AMV]

Sent my entries in.

Looking over the rules, you probably don't even have to withdraw your previous action entry to submit the new one. Rules say you can submit as many entries as you want and I didn't see any one per category type restriction for it.

this is true, but past experience with the contest says they wouldn't want too many videos in the contest made by the same person, which i can respect considering it only allows attendees to enter.

Ah I see, and I thought it was open submission to everyone but only attendees were eligible for awards? I'll have to withdraw my submissions if thats the case.
(Update: Contacted the Contest director and got my confusion straightened out.)

[Rider4Z]

oh thought it was only open to attendees no one take my words for ALA, vegas is my domain. ....oo that sounds hawt

[Shin-AMV]

It's open to attendees only, but exceptions may be made if they're lacking entries in particular categories is what I was informed.

[JudgeHolden]

It's open to attendees only, buy exceptions may be made if they're lacking entries in particular categories is what I was informed.

So, then this is is the only con in the world you're not sending all you AMVs to?
