Anime Los Angeles 2012 AMV Contest - NOW WITH WINNERS!!!

[Yuusharo]

Keep in mind that, as long as you have a proxy that will be attending Anime LA, you're still eligible for prizes. So just be sure to ask someone really, really nicely and they'll be your ticket in =).

I really thought we were doing open submissions this year, however. That seemed to be what all the feedback I received from people both on and off the record from last year leaned towards. How do you guys feel about that? Is it a good idea to reserve submissions to attendees only, or open it up for everyone to have a fair shot, provided everything else about the video falls into the rules (appropriate content, no 'trolling,' etc?)

A friendly reminder, ENTRIES ARE STILL BEING ACCEPTED through DEC 31!!!

I haven't registered for ALA yet, but I will definitely be attending. I'll hopefully be registered before the end of the month. Will me not being registered yet affect my entries getting into the contest?

[Yuusharo]

You're fine. I would email Mikal and let him know your situation so he knows.

ok, so when I submitted my entries a while ago, I was planning on attending the con, but things happened and I can't go anymore, so I assume my entries can't compete anymore, right?

[tipsd9video]

I think your entries will be fine if you get someone to attend in your place.

Grhh I just tried to register, but I guess that per-registration is closed. o_o

I'm only going for one day (Saturday), so it's much cheaper for me to reg in person that day.

Is AAC ok? If not, that's totally cool. I just noticed the rules only say mp3 or wav. These days, making an an h264 .mp4 without AAC seems a bit strange to me. Anyway, I'll be submitting soon. Thanks!

[Yuusharo]

AAC audio with mp4 H.264 is just fine. Matter of fact, that's preferred! Lol.

I sent something but haven't received any confirmation yet
