I'm sure you allready know but Gravitation is coming out soon and according to the rules you do not have to make a Yaoi-themed video in order to enter so long as you adhere to the contest theme instead.

This year I may actually have time, and spend time on a real Yaoi video, as opposed to the crappy/fluff stuff I entered last year.

Assuming its done by then, we should enter the gayest vid of all...

Project 3way!

It entales some m/f, f/f and d/f action, but not enough to really matter. In fact sexuality is not even a majority of the vid. But there is some guy/guy included (

which add is yet in aware of

) will the above disqualify the vid?

That depends on the amount of vs guy/guy. Videos about male/female female/female etc are not permitted. However from my understanding your video will not focus on these but seems to focus on all four options equally. In which case I would have to view it first but I would find it unlikely to say yes to this. Keep in mind of hte audience that this will be in front of, odds are they want to see as little m/f f/f etc as humanely possible and the more guy on guy action the better for them. I would prefer not to dictate to you how to make a video but I would say try to err on the safe side and keep the guy on guy action above the other options if you want it to be admitted. I disqualified two videos last year because they were entirely about a male-female relationship (nothing sexual) but it is outside of con policy.

I did however admit one video that did contain notions of a male-female couple but this 1. Was not the focus of the video and 2. The a video adhered to the theme of the con. So you can advert using m/m pairings in a video but if you instead go with m/f or f/f and use it to enhance the video then I would probably say no. Note in the rules that I made two deadlines this year. I am not certain how long it would take you to change said scenes if I said no, but if you make the first deadline and I say no then you will have a shot to change those scenes and resubmit for it to be admitted.
