Footage and musicUse only the supplied footage and audio. You can add your own titles, graphics and sound effects.
AI toolsAI tools are fine for clean-up: noise reduction, transcription, upscaling and masking. AI-generated shots, voices or automatic editing are not allowed.
EntriesOne entry per editor. You can replace it until submissions close.
JudgingAt least 6 blind ratings per entry on creativity, pacing, storytelling, effects, overall quality. Raters must watch at least 80% first and cannot see your name or other scores.
ScoringScores are adjusted for each rater’s habits and weighted by how many ratings an edit has, so a single 5-star rating can’t top the board.
ResultsResults lock on Mon 12 Oct. Scores stay hidden until then.
