In the past two years, it was okay to premiere the video somewhere else before submitting it to Otakon, as long as it didn't win any other contests before it was submitted.tuathaanwarrior wrote:on a related note, since theres no info on the otakon website and this year is my first year, what are the basic rules about premeiring a vid for the contest? Must it be submitted without uploading it anywhere or can it be up here first. Also, are they looking for vids from the time of the contest, or from the whole year?
There will be a new contest coordinator this year, so conceivably this might change.
