Anime Expo 2011 Anime Music Video Contest rules are up!

Been frantically working since the 20th but i managed to get the last of 3 vids done and sent em in.

When life gives you lemons don't make lemonade.

make AMVS.

[Scintilla]

hmm, I just wanted to make sure: if a creator wins in their respective category and is not present for the convention, will AX mail the prize to the creator? I guess in the case of money, will you guys mail that check or allow for it to be transferred to a back account?

But what about those that are not planning to attend? I would hate to see that I won but wasn't there to collect...

Spoiler: they shipped me my prize package last year, and it contained both trophies AND swag, even though the rules said (and still say) that they would only ship trophies.

So take that how you will. Dunno about money, of course.

[Sephiroth]

Id like a treasure chest full of money myself but a check will work just as well.

officially we can only promise to ship the trophy and (this year anyway) the check for the prize money. Any additional prizing we try to ship but can't always guarantee it. Hence the limiting language in the rules. Plan for the worst hope for the best.

Can I send a scan of signed entry form or is a physical copy required?

OK... feel like sending in my info by mail? Doubt I can whip it from here and be SURE it arrives soon enough. I'll mention you in some of my AMVs for exchange or something
