Video Clip Submission Form

Video Clip Submission Form
Creatures Community Spirit Festival 2008 Video Montage

This is the submission form for the CCSF '08 Video Montage! Each member of the Creatures Community is highly encouraged to participate in this project. All you have to do is capture a short in-game video of yourself doing whatever you do best in your favorite Creatures game, and submit it along with a short message to be added to the video. If you are confused, do not despair! Go to the Video Capture Tutorial page to learn everything you need to know about how to make a video clip of your Creatures.

Submission Guidelines

Video clips cannot be uploaded via this form. You must first upload them either to your personal server or to a file upload site such as FileFront or MegaUpload (please, no RapidShare), then enter the download link in the form.
Ideally, your video clip should be about a minute in length. If there are several submissions, your clip may be shortened to thirty seconds or less , so keep this in mind and avoid making continuity an important part of your clip. Keep it plain and simple.
All clips must be rated PG. This is not the time to show off that grendel you taught all those naughty words to. :P
Clips may be of any size or resolution-- they will be resized or otherwise altered to fit the frame.
If your video is not recorded in a 4:3 aspect ratio, the edges of the clip will be cropped to fit the frame.
If there is a watermark on your video (as a result of using a trial version of a capture program) I will attempt to crop it out to keep the video clean; however, if the watermark is overlaying an active part of the video, it will be left alone.
Videos will also be cropped to remove the taskbar or other windows that are not part of Creatures.
This probably goes without saying, but please don't submit a clip if it is not your own.
The deadline for submissions is November 30th. Any videos submitted after that day may not make it into the montage.

Onto The Form!

Unfortunately the awesome web form created for this project isn't working properly, so until then you'll have to email in the form manually, sorry. Hopefully I'll be able to fix it up soon.

In the meantime, please email the following information to:

Name/Alias/What the Creatures Community knows you as (this will be used to identify your video clip in the montage):

Email Address (This will not be shared; I will only use it to notify you that I have received your video, or to let you know if there is a problem):

Video clip download link:

Message: This will be overlaid onto your video clip. It can be a shoutout to the community, a short description of the clip, a declaration of community joy and festivity, a plug for your site, or anything else so long as it is suitable for all audiences (PG rated). Please limit it to a sentence or two-- it does have to fit within the time and space constraints of the video.

Additional Comments/Questions (In case there's anything in particular you want the montage editor to know, such as an odd codec you may have encoded your video with):

Thank you for participating!
