Glee is a musical comedy-drama television series that airs on Fox in the United States. It focuses on a high school show choir (a modern glee club) called "New Directions", at the fictional William McKinley High School in Lima, Ohio. The music featured on the show is usually remixes of popular songs, many of them being fairly well received to the public.

Purpose of the MEP
The primary purpose of the MEP is to foster the development of AMV's that use Glee as an audio source. The secondary purpose, of course, is to create an entertaining and enjoyable compilation of short Glee snippets to best develop/show the show's unique audio sound and flow.

MEP Specs
1) All AMV's should be developed with 848x480 and 16:9 AR. [1]
2) All AMv's should be set with 23.976 FPS. [2]
3) Finals should be submitted as Lagarith Lossless AVI OR H.264 MP4.[3]
4) Videos should be no longer than 2:00. [4]
5) Videos should have the highest video quality as possible. [5]
[1][While in the past I've allowed both 640x480 and 4:3 AR to be mixed with the 848x480, I've learned that in the long run it's more distracting than helpful when the AMV is finished. And, in my experience, 848x480 is generally nicer looking than 640x480. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause editors.]
[2][If your FPS is not set at this rate when I am sent the final, then I will NOT change it for you, but I will notify you about it and allow you to send in another final with the correct FPS.]
[3][I prefer MP4, but if you'd prefer to have complete control over your track's quality, then lossless is fine.]
[4][While I am going to be fairly strict about this, if the cut requires the track to be 5-10 seconds over the time limit, then that's fine]
[5][While I don't expect mirkoSP perfection, it still needs to be pretty to look at! If you're unsure, please pm before you begin.]

Other Information I Forgot To Add
1) Can reserve 1 track at a time, but can complete 2 AMV's for the project
2) There must be at least 4-5 seconds of footage before and after your track. No fading to black before or after either. It makes transitioning a nightmare.
3) Took out the rule about track reservations. You can claim up to two at first, but you have to finish the first two before moving on to another track.
