This is a reminder that entries for the Yaoi-Con Music Video Contest are to be postmarked by Friday, September 20.
Also, I wanted to clarify what we accept for video entries. A lot of people think that we are just taking 'yaoi' videos, but we're more open than that!
Basically, we take all videos that are about the guys in anime. Drama, Action, Comedy, Romance... the usual suspects.
There are only three main subject matter rules:
1. If using Romance as a theme in the video, it must be m/m (either explicit or implied).
2. Character footage used within the video must be mostly of the male characters in anime. (Doesn't have to be exclusively, just mostly.)
3. Excessive violence is discouraged and major violence in videos will only be accepted if it truly fits in with the theme and the categories. (Please note that 'horror' and 'gore' are not among the categories.)
If you have any questions, please let me know!

Technical Judges will view the videos before the convention and decide on awards for:

Honorable Mentions will be awarded as the staff sees fit.
Thanks with Smiles!
