Vidder's choice is open for submissions for 2024! Submit your vid by the end of the day on April 1st, 2024.
VidUKon has grown a lot in the last few years, and since 2020, Vidders Choice -- a show where anyone registered for the con can submit one vid from their back catalogue -- has grown massively into our biggest show, from roughly an hour-long show prior to 2020 to 3-4 hours long. We adore this, but it does present a bit of a challenge for the in-person portion of the con, where the seats aren't quite as comfy as at home.
We're trying out a new approach this year. When you submit a vid to Vidder's Choice, you will now have the option to submit to either a fully virtual show on Thursday night (around 9 or 10 PM British Summer Time), or you can select the usual hybrid show which will be on Friday evening, likely around 7 PM UK time. You can also indicate no preference if either is fine with you. We can't promise that everyone's preference will be accomodated, but we will do our best! If there are more people who choose the hybrid show than we have time for, then we will prioritise in-person attendees and people who don't have vids showing in other shows in the con. We don't have strict time limits on the fully virtual show, so the reverse is unlikely to be true.
Additionally, please only submit vids under 4 minutes long.
When you submit your vid in Conline, you will indicate your preference using the "Priority" field:
1: No preference
2: Fully virtual Thursday night show
3: Hybrid Friday evening show
The priority field was designed for a different purpose, so please ignore the "1 is most important" text, and leave the "conditionals" box blank.
