What is "heartbreak?" Like it's a video about the loss of love? I don't think that's romantic at all IMO :-P It's sad if anything :(

I had the same question when I sent in my form... but I figure, hell, if they consider "heartbreak" fitting for the "Romantic/Sentimental", that's their deal. Works for me. I think of it this way: a heartbreak video is still a romance video... just... the negative, evil, bad side of romance. :)

That makes sense...although I would've said heartbreak=drama/serious since it's more "dramatic" then romantic...I see romance as well...happy, triumph and so on.

At the same time, as I said...this makes sense as well...just not as much :-P

Well knowing you SO well...it's obvious that you submitted into Drama/Serious since well...ALL of your videos are to slower music and dramatic yet simple :-P

Hmmm...

1. Yes, obviously
2. Upbeat/Rhythm (Though they could put me in Romance if they didn't want to take the category TOO seriously)
3. I'd say around 125 or so entries.
