VidUKon schedule & Chaos Hour

VidUKon is taking place in one (1) month's time! If you'd like to whet your appetite, this year's schedule is available HERE. There have been a few timing changes since it was initially published, so double-check if there's any programming you particularly want to attend. You can click into each schedule item to see a description of that item, if you'd like to know more about what's in store.

Also, Chaos Hour is back, this time to break up the long dinnertime slot on Saturday night BST. Chaos Hour is a Zoom chat where attendees can bring their own programming. Take 5-10 minutes to tell us why all vidders should watch this one new (or old) show, talk about your favourite new effects trick, or anything else vid-related! You can contact concom ahead of time or just jump in during the chat – this is a very casual thing.

Group Vidding Workshop

If you're taking part in the Group Vidding Workshop, just a reminder the submission date is 4 May BST. If you don’t submit a fragment by the deadline, we’ll automatically assign a pinch-hitter in your place. Last year, there were a number of requests for extensions, but the timing this year is tighter, so any extensions will be for a couple of days at best.

You can find guidelines on how to render your vid fragment HERE.

Scholarship

VidUKon has a small pot built up, so a couple of fee waivers are possible for those who would like to attend the con but who are unable to afford the membership cost. Please get in touch with us at vidukon@gmail.com to find out more about our scholarship. (You do not need to disclose anything about your personal circumstances in order to qualify).

In-person attendance deadline

For those planning to join us in Bristol, registration for in-person attendance closes 4 May. Virtual registration will be open till very close to the start of the con.
