Please post questions and such, I’ll be checking as often as I can to reply.

Once again I have commissioned two local artists to work on the animation cells for this years prizes. Last year they where a big hit so I decided to have them made for this year. We also have the directors chair for best of show and the custom DVD's with previous winners and fan favorites. I will post pictures when I get a set ready. We ship prizes to winners, sadly the directors chair may not be available to some international destinations due to shipping cost over $100.

So send away! Let’s top last year’s entry count!

It's a good idea to write emails to the last year contest editors. It reminded me of the contest and makes me think about entering again

I remember entering a bunch of contests back when I was active in making AMV's way back in 2002. Almost all the contests I entered had no replies or confirmations. This is something I wanted to fix when I volunteered for Anime Banzai back in 2005.
People put a lot of work into AMV's is only respectable to reply when they enter, this is also why I mail out the VIP passes, even if its to an editor in another country I know for sure is not going to attend. It's my way of saying thanks for taking the time to enter.
As for the past entrants, Its interesting and fun to see what they come up with each year. I guess poking them with a little e-mail in reminder is my way of wanting to see what crazy stuff they have come up with.
