Association AMV France and Chibi Japan Expo are proud to present the International Team Iron Chef 2008 that will take place from the 25th to the 26th of October.
The winning AMV will be projected on giant screens during the Chibi Japan Expo in Paris.
For those of you who do not know what a Team Iron Chef is, the rules are simple: Your 3-members team has 48 hours to complete an AMV based on a given music. Basically, your team will have to face a very exiting race against time and use its creativity to create their best work under pressure.
At the starting time, you will have to choose between 2 audio mixes that will be proposed to all teams via email. However, all audio sources will be included into the downloadable archive. You will be free to remix these sources and create a new mix (based on these sources only). If you want to make your own mix, its duration can't be less than 4 minutes.
Official dates :
- The contest begins Saturday 25th of October at 0:01 am UTC+2 (Paris Timezone).
An email containing the audio archive link and the FTP address will be sent to all teams. -
The contest ends Sunday 26th of October at 11:59 pm UTC+2 (Paris Timezone).
All AMVs participating to the contest must be uploaded to the FTP server by this time.
The following formats are accepted :
- File formats - AVI, MP4 or MKV
- Video Codecs - DivX, XviD or x264
- Audio Codecs - MP3 or AAC
Registration :
Only teams made of 3 people will be accepted, no more, no less. Of course, you also have the opportunity to create international teams that will be able to work on several timezones.
One email address will be necessary for each team. You will receive on this address the audio package link and the FTP access necessary to upload your AMV.
