1) When submitting your AMV, please be sure and have your filename be your "moral of the story". Try and keep it under 15 words if at all possible. This will allow for "easier" judging, and an possibly help get your concept across

You know, I had a similar reaction. Shouldn't the moral of the video speak for itself if you're worth a damn as an editor? Having the filename give it away just seems stupid to me.

You're more than welcome to not name your file and let your work speak for yourself if you so desire. The fact of the matter is that you can name your moral whatever you want, but unless the editing reflects it well, it's not going to score well irregardless. The rule was put there for the consideration of the judges, not the editors. Because each judge could interpret the work separately, and score it for better or for worse, depending on their interpretation. The round's theme is to test how well you can develop a concept/moral and follow through with it.

I doubt that a moral of "Smoking pot is bad" would speak the same to you and to, say, Kenzichu ;x

Just a warning: this thread will be filled with bullshit by the end of this contest. Try not to take it too seriously. While Joey and I both might be giggling over that, I'm sure we both respect the fact that this is your contest and not ours, and that you are free to run it however you please. I already plan on letting the judges know how I feel about that rule with the file name of my video, and that's enough satisfaction for me.

Edit: More importantly, are there any minimum or maximum video length parameters we should know about? I'm trying to decide between a 2 second video and a 2 hour one, and your answer is going to let me know which one to start on.

Duly noted, I'll try my best not to go batshit insane of rage and make you all edit to music.

EDIT: Actually....

EDIT2: Actually, no there are no restraints on time limits. As long or as short as you want, Rule #8
