Описание: Hello and welcome to our very first contest! The celebrations for reaching 100k subscribers continues! Now before you make any decisions, PLEASE read all of the description VERY carefully.

I just want to make some quick very important points about this contest;
this is NOT an audition, purely a contest. HOWEVER, open invitations to the studio will be extended if we are impressed by your work, but you are in no way obliged to join the studio (you do not have to be a winner to receive an invitation.)
there are 2 separate categories with 2 separate winners (one for each) fx and raw. It is your decision which category you enter, but you may only enter one.
The contest IS open for SNS members
The longer your amv is, the more points you are able to achieve.

I'm going to try and make this as simple as possible so ill breakdown the explanation into different sections, first;

CONTEST RULES; - Your video should meet these requirements;
-Video must be edited by ONE person
Anime Only (the definition of anime can be ambiguous to some, if you are unsure about the media you wish to use do not hesitate to ask and we will clarify for you) this includes manga.
No shorter than 40 seconds long and this discounts studio intros, as this is not part of your AMV. Videos shorter than 40 seconds will be rejected, but you will be allowed to change this if this is done before the deadline.
The title of your video should read as follows; SNS - CONTEST 100 | (followed by the name of your AMV). So for example; "SNS - CONTEST 100 | Unstoppable"
Your video must be new and cannot be an already created and uploaded AMV, it must be entirely your own work.
Send your entry via PM to this channel;; + clarify which category you are entering and what name you would like to be represented with with the link to your video (only on Youtube) Make sure it is there after we respond to you.
IF POSSIBLE Avoid using songs that have extreme levels of copyright.

JUDGING
This year the judging will be much different and more complex, i will try my best to entail how it is done, but do not worry so much if you do not understand fully.
Each judge (iBakaCam, AnimezzTV and Tenebriiis) uses 4 categories to judge which is slightly different for each side of the contest (fx and raw)
FX entails; Timing 0/20 Flow 0/20 Use of effects 0/20 Originality 0/20
RAW entails; Timing 0/20 Flow 0/20 Narration 0/20 Originality 0/20
Now instead of compiling our scores together, we will create a mean value which will give us the average scores, giving you a total out of 80.
Length of AMV is also factored into your score. It adds a percentage of your score based on the length of your amv, these percentage categories are as follows;

1| 40 - 59 = 0% added
2| 1 - 1:29 = 5% added
3| 1:30 - 1:59 = 10% added
4| 2:00 - 2:29 = 15% added
5| 2:30 - 2:59 = 20% added
6| 3:00 and over = 25% added

EXAMPLE - Contestant scores 80 overall (highest possible grade) and their video length is 2:35. This falls into category 5 which results in 20% of their score being added on. This means 20% of 80 (which is 16) resulting in the overall score of the contestant is 96 (80+16) (100 being the maximum possible score.)
I KNOW THAT WAS A LOT SO.. IN SIMPLE TERMS; The longer your AMV is, the more points you are able to achieve.

WINNERS!

(of both categories)
1ST PLACE - Receive an SNS trophy with your name engraved & Your video is uploaded to our channel.

2ND 3RD 4TH & 5TH 20 seconds of your amv are featured in the runners up video and links to your amv and channel provided. (subject to change)

Results days;
Raw results - August 12th
FX results - August 15th
BOTH are subject to change

And i think thats it! I hope that wasnt too confusing. Please don't hesitate to join the contest if you are unsure, this contest is designed so that no matter what your motivation is, you are able to join the contest. Join in! be a part of this event and help us celebrate 100k, motivate yourself and your friends to make something special, you never know, you may find your AMV uploaded on our channel :)

Good luck!
