Should other staff members who aren't involved with the AMV contest wish to submit videos, they will be allowed to be played in the contest in the Best Of BC category.

AMV SMACKDOWN
AMVs that win contest awards will progress to the AMV Smackdown. Winning videos will compete head to head against winners in previous years to determine which winner is the current best in its respective categories. After audience voting, the winner of the head to head battle is crowned smackdown champion and will represent its winning category in Tsukino. We will also be giving out the prizes and asking anyone who submitted to join us on stage for a round of applause and photo. If you wish to not, that is okay as well!

Thanks for reading this far, and let's make this AMV contest a great one!
