ALL AMV Creators and their guests attending ALA this year will be given VIP seating for the contest, regardless if you are a finalist. We will be hosting a special half hour pre-show before the start of the event, showcasing some of the best of the non-finalists and honorable mentions. There's even a few surprises during the show, so you won't want to miss it!

If you are attending ALA this year, please reply back to me with how many guests you'd like to bring (please limit to 4). Information about seating winners announcements will be sent in another message soon.

On behalf of the AMV Staff and Anime Los Angeles, thank you for participating and giving us a chance to showcase your amazing work. I can't wait to see you all in a few weeks.

Take care!
