For the contest, the basic structure will be similar to last years with a panel of judges picking several winners of categories and ballot voting for an audience best as well. But I will be changing how the categories will be handled to address the number of growing videos that don't fit into the traditional ones and make it as fair as possible for any kind of AMV to compete.
I hope to have more on this in the near future. For now, I would like to get some feedback and suggestions of what can be added/done to make the AMV track more exciting and interesting to the audience. I'm working out some details on several things for it but would also like to see what people think and would like to see.
Last year the con attendance was about 1300 (First time con too!) and this year it is expected to increase greatly from there. The AMV track last year was a big success and the con is all for having it back (
