These types of video and video/web projects are acceptable:
Live Action – The Live Action production type includes full motion productions that generally have on-screen talent in the form of actors, instructors, hosts, or narrators. Often, a computer will be used for titles, credits, overlays, and editing. Media accepted are CD or DVD. Cell phone videos are not permitted for this contest.
A "Sequential Stills" Movie - A sequential stills movie production is a series of images with text, music, video clips and/or narration added that are made into a video. These are oftentimes created in movie-making software like iMovie or MovieMaker.
Animation – An Animation includes drawn images, clay models, and/or real-life models that are animated to create the illusion of movement. If a piece integrates live action and animation, it falls under the animation production type. Famous examples of integrated animation are the 1945 Gene Kelly film, Anchors Aweigh and 1988’s Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Media accepted are CD or DVD. We don’t expect to see many entries like this, but, go for it!
Sequential Stills – A Sequential Stills production is a series of images with text, music, video clips and/or narration added. Often, sequential stills pieces are created in slideshow software like Microsoft PowerPoint. Media accepted are CD or DVD. For the purposes of this contest, video clips and narration must be included. Music would be nice as well!
Interactive Stills – An Interactive Stills production includes images that are viewed in an order chosen by the viewer. Interactive Stills use navigation buttons and/or menus to enable the viewer to select a path. Text, music, video clips and narration may be incorporated into an Interactive Stills production. Media accepted is CD.
