Video editing is not accepted (DJs cannot edit two or more different performances into one set). DJs must submit a non-stop performance. There are no restrictions on creative film presentation, for example multi camera angles, blue/green screen techniques, video back-drop, providing the recording is non-stop from start to finish.

No graphics or signage can be added to video submissions.

All videos must be uploaded before 11:59pm EST on their due date.

A video cannot be longer than 4 seconds over time limit or it will be automatically rejected.
