• Maximum length of 240 seconds/4 minutes.
• Maximum size of 750 Mb.
• No watermark of your handle/username/logo throughout the video. 
  • If you want to put your info in the intro/outro credits that is okay
  • Please remove tool watermarks wherever possible since it distracts from the viewing experience. Entries that feature a tool watermark won't be disqualified, however it is highly discouraged. Solutions include upscaling + cropping, adding black cinematic bars, or adding gaussian blur mask.

• Rendered at either a 16:9 horizontal aspect ratio (1920x1080) OR 9:16vertical aspect ratio (1080x1920).
• Export in an .mp4 or .webm format.
• Films that have been made outside of the competition window (June 17th-July 15th) are ineligible for awards.
• If you use music, you must use a song you've made, a song someone has given you permission to use (also includes stock music or public domain), or a song completely made with AI (i.e. Suno, Udio, Stable Audio, ElevenLabs).
• Update: No photorealistic depiction of children/minors. This goes against many of the terms of service of the sponsoring AI companies and can't be posted for liability reasons. Non-photorealistic depictions (i.e. anime) are okay, as long as they are in no way NFSW, since that is illegal and we have a zero tolerance policy.
