Anime Los Angeles 2011 AMV Contest *WINNERS*

Post by MikalSaltveit » Sat Aug 28, 2010 7:10 pm

From the official ALA website (http://www.animelosangeles.org/wp/?p=320):
The AMV (Anime Music Video) contest takes place on Friday. Anime Music Videos consist of clips from one or more anime series or movies set to songs. They are made by fans because they have a passion for an anime/song combination that drives them to show that vision to audiences.

All of our contestants are fans just like you who have worked hard all year to create the videos we will be showing off Friday evening. There are many
awards that can be won.

Audience Categories:
◦Crowd Pleaser / Best in Show / Audience Fav
◦Best in Category (Four awards: Action, Drama, Comedy, Pro)

Judging Categories: (Voted on by our panel of Judges)
◦Best Produced
◦Judges’ Favorite

Additional Awards:
◦Creators' Choice (Voted on by the contestants)
◦Staff's Pick (AMV Staff pick their favorite entrie(s) )

Our Judges are:
Ed Hooper
Amy Horswill
Victoria Shapero
Lauren Cook
Mystery Judge (Every year we fill our fifth spot with a mystery person!)

Check out the AMV site: http://saltve.it/AMV/
Hope to see you there!
There have been a few changes to the rules so please check them out before submitting to be sure your video qualifies.

The most important change is that we have changed the soft deadline to November 1st and the hard deadline to December 1st. If the entry is not in my hands by midnight December 1st it will not be accepted.

If there are any questions there is now a comment section on our AMV site. You could also either post here or e-mail us at AMV11@saltve.it EDIT: Comment section broken, please e-mail instead!

Thak you for reading,
Mikal Saltveit

Anyone involved with ALA's contest watching the forums? I've sent off a few emails and haven't heard anything back.

The submission form page for the contest didn't appear to have an indicator that the form had been successfully submitted. Instead it had a link asking if I had an online business or not.
