Young Americans - Fan Forum Music Video Awards 2007

**wolkenfuehlen** · 04-05-2007, 09:40 AM

Dear Posters,

Fan Forum began hosting the Second Annual Fanforum Music Video Awards. These awards are open on all TV Show boards, and to all posters and we hope you will all enjoy them.

To make the process as smooth as possible we have compiled a list of rules and guidelines to read before submitting your videos. Please read these carefully.

How The Awards Will Work

1. Videos submitted will be judged by the Moderators of the TV Show board submitted to, Or an assigned replacement judge.
2. Moderators of the boards will be allowed to submit to their own boards but judging will be done fairly by all judges.
3. Judges will choose ONE video for each TV Show to win the Best of that TV Show award and will go onto the second round.
4. In the second round the selected video from each TV Show will compete and be judged as the best of each category, Best Angst, Best Romance, etc. The videos will be put into categories at the time of the judging, by the judges. Posters do not decide which category they want to enter their video in.
5. Second round winners will then compete in a final round and ONE video will be chosen as Fanforum’s Best TV Show Music Video.

Rules For Submitting Videos

1. You can only submit up to FOUR videos in each TV Show.
2. Please only submit your own videos, not those of other people.
3. Slideshow videos are not accepted.
4. Videos must be online throughout the judging time. If we can't download it, we can't judge it. This is why we recommend using something like megaupload, SendSpace, or YouTube. Please don’t use YouSendIt as files expire after seven days there.
5. Any videos submitted in the Music Video Awards 2006 cannot be re-entered.

This is interesting! Unfortunately, I cannot participate cause I'm not really that creative.

So go get'em YA fans! Upload your best YA music videos!

Silversun · 04-06-2007, 05:04 AM

Hehehe! I wasn't even aware that this had started again. Man, I need a YA vid to enter.

Still, 12 May is plenty of time! And I do have Easter off...

*rolls up sleeves*

Mrs. Somerhalder · 04-06-2007, 06:55 AM

Woohoo! goodluck Nicky!

Can't wait to watch your entry.

**wolkenfuehlen** · 04-06-2007, 12:44 PM

Nicky, I was hoping you'd say that.

Anyone else thinking about participating?

Silversun · 04-07-2007, 02:20 PM

I hope someone else enters! We need some YA vid love.

I went on a mad vidding bender yesterday and have nearly got something together. It's not exactly my best work - not my fault! YA is REALLY hard source to vid! - but I hope it'll put a smile on people's faces.

Mrs. Somerhalder · 04-07-2007, 10:26 PM

No worries, I'm sure it's a grea video Nicky.
I'm excited to see it!

That was great!

I can't stop smiling.

I hope someone else enters as well. The more YA vids the better!

Silversun · 04-08-2007, 02:58 PM

Hehe, thanks guys. I'm glad it gave you a laugh.

I hope someone else enters as well! Poor unloved YA.

lunabunny · 04-08-2007, 03:39 PM

Nicky, I love it

I've got the song stuck in my head now. I really wish you the best of luck, it'll be great if a YA video wins.

Unfortunately I've no idea how to make one myself so I'll be no use.

Silversun · 04-09-2007, 12:13 AM

Thanks lunabunny.

At the moment I just hope somebody else enters cos I'm feeling silly being the only one with a vid.

lunabunny · 04-09-2007, 01:23 AM

Nah, not silly, you should feel happy, you're standing up for YA

I would if I could... I make fan art instead

**wolkenfuehlen** · 04-09-2007, 05:45 AM

Well, it's still a month until the deadline, so maybe we'll get another entry.

We had more last year, so I haven't given up hope yet.
