My Otakon 2023 AMV Theater Darling
AMV THEATER INFO
AMV Theater is back in Room 202 (same place as last year).
AMV Theater will be running all convention-weekend as-normal. 9AM-1:30AM Friday/Saturday, 9AM-4PM Sunday.
-----------------------
IRON EDITOR Who:
BecauseImBored1 tries to keep the streak alive against long-time AMV creator: Compbros!
What:
Two AMV editors spend two hours editing an AMV in front of a live audience. No pressure. There will also be plenty of audience participation events.
How?
Each contestant will be given 6 anime sources, and all 6 must be used. Each contestant is allowed to cut their audio ahead of time and bring it with them to the event. They may bring multiple tracks if they so desire, as no audio will be provided during the event. In addition, each editor must use at least 1 second of EACH secret ingredient.
Sources:
This year's theme is "Murder Mystery on a Train", and the sources are as follows:
Baccano!
Rail Wars!
Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress Movie: The Battle of Unato
Galaxy Express 999 (1978)
Demon Slayer: Mugen Train (the movie)
Plus the Secret Source!
When and Where:
Saturday, July 29th, 4:15pm, AMV Theater (time and date subject to change).
-----------------------
THE AMV CONTEST
There are 3 screenings, all in AMV Theater (1 on Friday, 2 on Saturday). There will be voting at all 3 screenings. AMV Theater seats 700 people now, so this should accommodate everyone who wants to see the contest, but if history repeats itself, you might have a hard time getting a seat at the Saturday evening screening. The AMV Contest Awards Ceremony will also be held in AMV Theater on Sunday.
AMV Contest Rules:
https://www.otakon.com/activities/amv-contest/
This year we are opening up the doors a bit and accepting AMVs using footage that is "culturally relevant" and not necessarily anime. What is "culturally relevant"? Well, that's up to each judge's personal preferences. We're trying to branch out and be more accepting. Hopefully this won't lead to contest drama.
AMV Contest deadline is June 26th. Yes, this is a week earlier than last year. We've been pushing it too close for the last few years, so we had to claw it back a bit.
AMV Contest FINALISTS:
Only listing the studio names, for those who wish to keep their entry a surprise. You don't have to keep your entry a secret if you don't want to.

AMV Contest Entrant Perks:
If you entered a video in this year's contest and weren't disqualified, you're entitled to 3 ribbons (one for you, two for your homies). You can pick up these ribbons at PROGRAMMING OPS (WEWCC 209A-C, there's a sign outside). Bring some form of ID that says you're you (you will pick up all 3 at the same time).
These ribbons entitle you to reserved seating at any of the 3 AMV Contest screenings, and the AMV Contest Awards presentation. Because we expect each event to completely fill, we will start giving away seats in the reserved section 10 minutes prior to each event starting, so be sure that you show up with at-least 10 minutes to spare.

My friend is interested in participating in the Iron Editor. Is vboruta@otakorp.org a good email for him to send a message to about the IE? Or is there a better one?

The Iron Editor theme this year is "Murder Mystery on a Train".
