When creating your Entry, please adhere to the Do’s & Don’ts below and on the App.
Do’s...
Please don’t include any last names or other personal information (such as date of birth, home address or phone number), in your Video. For the avoidance of doubt, you may introduce yourself (if you are a solo performer) and any others in the Video (if you are of a family) by saying only first name(s). The use of an introduction is not required. Also, don’t include any names and/or likenesses of any person(s) other than individuals who have consented to be included in the Contest and who are members of your Family (i.e., have relationships with you and each other that are considered familial in nature). Each performer who is seen or heard in the Video (either solo or as a family) who is a Minor, must have their Parent’s and/or legal guardian’s permission to participate in the Video and to submit the video into the Contest.
Don’ts...
Avoid bad language, rude gestures and other inappropriate behavior and/or objects, and for your safety, don’t try any risky moves or perform dangerous stunts.
Filmmaker Tips
Try to hold the camera so your Video comes out wider than it is tall (like a movie screen), but this is a suggestion, not a requirement.
Use sunlight, light bulbs, whatever! Shoot with lots of light coming from behind the camera and shining on you (or you and your family)!
The closer you (or you and your family) are to the camera or separate microphone, the better the voice(s) will sound.
Make sure your camera is on a tripod or make sure something is holding it steady.
Phase 2/Judging/Finalist Selection Phase: Entries will be judged by Sponsor’s appointed panel of judges consisting of employees of Sponsor (“Judges”) who will score the eligible Entries based on the following criteria (“Criteria”) in order to determine the Entrants who provided the top three (3) Videos (“Finalist(s)”): entertainment value of award presentation shown in the Video (40%); personality, poise and presence (20%); ability to speak clearly (20%); and explanation why Entrant should be chosen as a presenter at the RDMAS (20%). The highest scoring Entries will determine the potential Finalists. If an Entrant includes optional Video Participants/Family members in his/her Video, the entire performance of the Entrant, along with the Video Participants, will be judged according to the Criteria.
11:59 PM PT on April 23, 2017 (“Voting Phase”), and individuals who have downloaded the App (“Users”) will be able to vote for their favorite Finalist on the App (“Vote”). Limit one (1) Vote per User per day during the Voting Phase.
The one (1) Finalist that receives the highest number of Votes during the Voting Phase will be deemed the grand prize winner (“Grand Prize Winner”), subject to Sponsor’s rights and the requirements set forth herein, and pending verification of all Votes and accuracy of Grand Prize Winner’s Finalist Documents (defined in section 7 below). Finalists are prohibited from obtaining Votes by any fraudulent or inappropriate means, including, without limitation, offering prizes or other inducements to members of the public, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. Without limiting the foregoing, disqualification of an Entrant and/or Votes can result if Sponsor/Administrator (in their sole discretion) suspect any fraud or voter/voting misconduct. This includes (but is not limited to) if any Votes appear to violate Vote limits or involve the purchasing or bartering of Votes. Determination of violations are at Sponsor’s sole discretion and include, but are not limited to: (a) unusual patterns in Votes for an individual Entry originating from the same IP address during the same day; (b) an unusually high number of Votes originating from the same IP address during the same day; (c) unusual username patterns originating from the same IP address; and (d) unusual time- of-day patterns originating from the same IP address. Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify any Votes, which in Sponsor’s good faith determination, are cast in violation of these Rules, to achieve an unfair advantage or by automated means of any sort.
