Yule Ball Video Submission Rules
All videos are due by August 1st
- Credits must run during your song, anything before or after the music starts will be deleted.
- Name your video the viddername_songtitle
- Accepted formats - copied from VividCon's Website
- MPEG-2 video file plus a separate audio file - we strongly prefer this format. In fact, we prefer this format so much that we made a windows program called LlamaEnc for encoding your video into this format. You can read about LlamaEnc here. For more instructions on how to encode your files in this format, please see the MPEG2 Encoding Tips page.
- At a stretch we can accept a DIVX file.
- Specs for accepted formats: - copied from VividCon's Website
- MPEG-2 video file: MPEG-2 video, 720x480 resolution, NTSC format, encoded at 5500-6500 kpbs bitrate*, with an "m2v" suffix. *IMPORTANT: Do NOT encode your vid at a higher bitrate. If you do, you increase the filesize without noticably improving video quality and increase the likelihood of jerky playback. We withhold the right to re-encode your video if size or format is a problem.
- Audio file: WAV or AIFF format (48 kHz). Please do NOT use AC-3 or mp3.
- DIVX file: 29.97 frames per second, 720x480 resolution, high bitrate.
- How to Submit Your Video
- Upload your files to the internet using either your personal webspace or large file upload sites like sendspace, megaupload, or the like
- Send an email to countessmary@gmail.com with a link to your files.
- If you're having trouble finding a space large enough to host your vid for download, contact Mary at the above email address and we'll work it out
- We will accept videos that are mailed in so long as they are received by July 15th. They must be in data file form to be accepted. Email Mary for the address.
