Hi. I've read your rules and guidelines. I was wondering though. Is it a violation of one of the rules regarding studio logos? I mean, I have a video meant to serve as a tribute I've assembled, but it displays the Disney Castle reading "Disney 100: 100 Years of Wonder" at the end of it rather than the typical opening logo often seen at the start of a movie that would say "Walt Disney Pictures" or simply "Disney."

Hi there! That's a great question! Last year I did in fact make an exception for text at the end of video that was a tribute of sorts. What you are describing sounds perfectly fine as well. The rule regarding studio logos is a reminder for people who usually upload videos with their own opening or ending graphics. I hope to see your video soon!

One quick question before the deadline hits, about this freshness rule:

Anything first publicly exhibited (convention showing or uploaded to an online video service) prior to July 18th, 2023.

Does that apply to the Fun sized category too? And also, how long can those videos be and still be eligible?

I have 2 vids that I could submit to that category, depending on the answers. I'll also email you as well, because it's so close to the deadline.

Yes, the freshness rule does apply to all videos in all categories. Videos are only eligible if they are made within the year leading up to the convention. Most conventions use this yearly rule!
