Adressing a question I was emailed.

:?: do we have to BE at the convention when you show our AMV?

:idea: No, submissions will be accepted from people who are not actually attending the convention. We PREFER you attend but if you do not and you are a winner your prize will be mailed to you. We encourage any and all submissions.

Unfortunately our FTP isnt working yet but I can take submissions in other forms if you email me for arrangements.

We can handle 24 FPS... 29.97 is NTSC standard pretty common among convention submission requirements actually. :)

Well, but most of them also specify that 23.976 with the 3:2 pulldown upon playback flag will also work. If it's not stated right out, we have to make sure.

But yeah, being able to handle 24fps is good, so *up*
