Contest Rules -- Entry Form (it's a nice shiny web form this year!)
Please be sure to read the rules in their entirety, as they have changed since 2013. For example, MPEG-2 is no longer the preferred file format.
Note that even if your video is not yet finished, you can still request FTP access by e-mailing amv@animenext.org .
Entries sent by post must be postmarked by APRIL 26 and received by APRIL 30. Entries sent via FTP must be completely received by the end of APRIL 26.
Here's some reasons to enter our contest:
- We will ship certificates and prizes to the winners if they cannot make it to the show -- but NOT in breakable glass frames this year!
- Medals for the winners this year -- see this post for sample photo!
- All valid entries received on time (unless disqualified) WILL be shown at the convention, even if they do not make finals.
- No maximum video length. Bring on the prog rock, classical, whatever!
- The categories are not set in advance. If we have enough good videos in a genre, there will be an award for it. So send us your horror, your trailers, your upbeat, etc.!
