AWA "YES WE ARE VERY LATE IN POSTING DATES" 15 AMV Contests

Post by MCWagner » Tue Jun 23, 2009 10:03 pm

Yeah, I know. But the deadlines are less than a week different than last year.

Deadlines
Pro Contest: Deadline July 24

Masters: Deadline August 7

Expo Contest: Deadline August 21



What disaster delayed us so thorougly? It's a long story and not at all helpful to y'all, the injured parties. If self-flagellation would give y'all more time, I'd happily do it, but the fact of the matter is that we're restricted by the technical aspects of pro as to where we can put the deadline (processing time for the pro contest). We'll do our best to work with all y'all, but we can't time travel yet, so we're stuck with the dates we have.

RULES: are still under construction. Masters' final rules are up, and the old rules for Pro and Expo.
In brief:

1) Masters' is back, under new management. Jingoro, the originator, the alpha and omega of the VAT has returned, and we are working with his rules. a) 5 minute time limit. b) anyone may enter c) everything else is the same.

2) Expo: No rule changes.

3) Pro: Submission mechanisms are identical. Judging has changed a little, but is largely identical. (More later.)

Ouch.

To clarify the other rule change, that means we don't need to have won an award previously now, right?

thats correct. But the video must still be 'never before screened.'

Holy crap.

Jingoro is back. I missed that lug. Too bad I can't get off for the con proper...

These deadlines are indeed painful... Now that I know Masters is up for grabs... It changes things completely...

Glad I know now though.

Matt's access is still spotty. Send it to Carl too, so he's in the loop.

So does the excusivity rule still apply to Master's, or can we also send our entries elsewhere ?

As I said before, the video must be new and never before screened.
