Description

 

It's back for it's fifth consecutive year. The GMV Contest is a contest held yearly by Sora96. It puts some of the best video editors on KH13.com against each other to decide who is number one. The contest continues to grow more and more popular each year and I hope it continues that way this year.

 

How to enter

 

To enter you must simply reply to this topic with a video you've made by January 18, 2014. You can use any video that you've made. It doesn't matter when it was made.

 

Rules

 

All videos used in this contest must use clips from the Kingdom Hearts series and/or FINAL FANTASY series. 

 

If you do decide to make a new video I recommend you render it in 720p or 1080p. However if you render it in 480p it won't affect your position or chance of winning in this contest unless the quality is poor. I want all videos to be in the highest quality possible.

 

The minimum length of all videos is 30 seconds. There is no limit.

 

You can host your videos on YouTube or Vimeo.

 

Prizes

 

After the contest is completed you will be able to add to your Member Title, Profile and/or Signature a message saying where you finished in this contest. Eg. "The GMV Contest of 2014 Champion!". You've probably seen other members with this from past years.

 

Likes will be awarded throughout the contest on both your posts and your videos. 

 

I will subscribe to some YouTube channels.

 

Throughout this contest your videos and your channel will most likely gain a boost in views, likes and subscribers.

 

This year's champion will also get a mystery prize. The mystery prize is early access to a new section of our video archive.

The first Divisional round match has been completed.
 
Charlotte Kinouchi has defeated Stardustblade358 and will move onto the Championship Final.
 
How the Championship Final is looking atm:
 
Charlotte Kinouchi vs FurySpark / The Basic Nerd
 
The other Divisional round match will be completed as soon as FurySpark and The Basic Nerd post their videos. They have until February 15 to do so.

The reigning champ faces off against the newcomer!

 

Will FurySpark move on to defend the title and possibly secure a third consecutive win, or will he be bested by the challenger?

 

And just who will ultimately face off against Charlotte Kinouchi- who has succeeded in surpassing her previous ranking in last year's competition?!

 

The excitement's building up as the finale draws ever closer!

Wow I can't believe I'm in the finals! FurySpark and TheBasicNerd are both so good I'm feeling pretty nervous! Good luck you two!

Congrats Charlotte. Wish all of you guys luck. I have a feeling its going to be an intense competition from here on out.

Yes, but not too much.

Yes, but not too much.

Okay, thanks!

 Welp at least I don't have to worry about making another video. Thanks for having this contest Sora96, it got me to improve on my editing skills. Pretty sure next year I'll be back with better videos. Good luck to Charlotte and FurySpark on the finals. :D

Thank you! You did a really good job on that video so I think there's a good chance you could win next year!

BasicNerd I'm gonna be honest, I thought you had me there. I watched your video and was very impressed. Well done!

 

Wish you all the best ;)

Almost didn't think I'd make it in time! I hope you're going by an American time zone Sora96 because it's already 1:30am on Sunday morning where I am! Here's my entry for the finals anyway. It's not quite as polished as I'd have liked because I ran out of time and I very much doubt it's enough to beat FurySpark but I did my best so I'll be happy whatever the outcome. Hope you like it! 

 

 Wow both of you are sooo good like the timing and the effects holy crap teach me O^O Well anyway, really curious who wins this last round because if I was Sora96 I would call it a draw.
