Edit: As this year's VidUKon will be streaming, to ensure your vid can be shown, please include an embed code and link! The vid should also be viewable without a password. For premiering vids, we suggest you make your vid unlisted/private until after the show to preserve the surprise. Get in touch if you need any help with this!
Premieres
Absolutely any vidder can submit a premiering vid to VidUKon. You do not need to be attending/supporting the convention. You do not need to be at any particular level of skill or experience. The vid you submit can be in any fandom, genre or style. It can be a solo vid or a collaboration. The only requirement is that the vid be completely new, showing for the first time at the con. This means that once you submit it to us, you cannot release it online or show it at any other convention until after the Premieres show on Saturday night of the con. After that you can release the vid as usual.
The deadline for Premieres is Monday 10 May, so make sure to upload your vid to the site before then. Ideally we prefer vids to be submitted in our standard Premieres format - there's more information about how to achieve this at the bottom of THIS POST. However, if you have trouble doing this for whatever reason, please submit your vid anyway and we can handle it - we'd hate to lose out on your vid!
Vidder's Choice
Vidders who have registered to attend/support the convention can submit one of their own existing vids to this show. It can be any vid at all that you've made, so long as it has been previously released. This is an opportunity to highlight a hidden gem, celebrate an old favourite, or maybe even drag a few new people into an obscure fandom!
The deadline for Vidder's Choice is also Sunday 10 May. Vids can be uploaded in any format. If you are planning to purchase an online membership and wish to have a vid included in the show, you will need to register before uploading a vid. (If this is a problem for any reason, though, please get in touch and let us know!)
As a reminder, this year's con is taking place entirely online! Register for a supporting/online membership from anywhere in the world to join us on June 12-14!
