Update 03/01/10 - The contest is now closed.  Those who have FTP accounts will have until March 8th to upload your videos before the final deadline.

--------------------

Update 02/28/10 - This is it!  The final day!  If you still have a last-minute request for us to set aside FTP for your video, let us know at amvcontest@tekkoshocon.com today!

--------------------

Update 02/20/10 - After due consideration, the Tekkoshocon AMV Department has decided to extend the FTP account reservation deadline 1 extra week, to February 28th.  Please note that this is only to set aside an FTP account for your video(s).  The absolute deadline for video entry still remains March 8th.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Smiley

-------------------------------------

Tekkoshocon is fast approaching, so we're now taking your FTP reservations and your mail-in videos for the AMV Contest!  As with last year, there are three different contests to submit to: General Audience (the main contest), R-Rated, and NC-17.

You can find the rules and submission information on the AMV page of the Tekkoshocon VIII website.

We'll definitely have more medallion awards to give out this year (with some previews down the line), a big main events showing, and we're working to get a prime slot for the contest showing.  Not to mention a few other surprises in the works...  :wink:

So, send your e-mails to amvcontest@tekkoshocon.com, and good luck!  Cheesy

------------------------

NOTE: At this time, we can only accept reservations for FTP accounts.  The actual accounts will be available by this weekend and will be given out first to those who reserve early, so e-mail away.  Smiley

FTP accounts are now available.

The deadline for Mail-in Submissions & FTP Reservations is February 21, 2010. We will be giving those who reserve an FTP account before the deadline one extra week to upload their file(s).

Also, as noted above, you may enter the AMV Contest even if you are not attending. We are setting aside the budget to mail out prizes to all winners of the contest.

More updates to come.   Cheesy

What exactly is the Trailer or Commercial Videos category?

Trailers & Commercials are videos that parody (or are original videos in) the trailer or commercial advertisement style.  They tend to range from parodies of movies and famous commercials to original trailer or advertisement work involving made-up companies or storylines.

For examples, you can check the Tekkoshocon contest winner list sticky.  Wink

I would like to submit an AMV but sadly, I can't find a site that doesn't have subtitles. I have a full season of a show but I don't know how to save the files so I can put them together.

There's only a few days left until the reservation deadline, so if you haven't yet sent an e-mail to amvcontest@tekkoshocon.com, send one today.  Smiley

Note that you will have some time after the deadline to upload your video to us, so don't feel too pressured to get your video in right away.  We need your indication that you want to participate soon, though.   Wink

This is it! The final day!

Yup, no more extensions -- the FTP reservation deadline is by the end of today. Note again that this is only setting aside an account for you -- for those with an FTP account reserved, we are giving a little over a week to send in the competing video before the final deadline.

We're still taking anything and everything, so send your request today! Smiley

According to the response I got when I asked over email, most likely Monday or Tuesday.
