It's back for it's sixth consecutive and final 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.

 

How to enter

 

To enter you must simply reply to this topic with a video you've made by November 15, 2015. 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 2015 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.

 

You'll also have the honour of being the final winner of this long running contest.

Haha, thanks for entering. But you'll need to pick one for this stage.

Hmm, alright then.  I pick the Bring Me To Life one.

I tell you what FurySpark, your GMV making skills have always impressed me. I don't know if I'll ever be able to match them, especially with the programme that I'm limited to using, however if I can at least come second to you that'll be reward enough for me!

Thank you!I have nothing but the upmost respect for you as a person and an editor!

Thank you so much!

For those who haven't realized, this year we have The GMV Contest Champions of 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. We also the Finalists for both 2013 & 2014.

 

FurySpark is aiming for FOUR straight, while khoathkeeper13 hopes to reclaim the title and Charlotte searches for her first title. We also have a couple of newcomers looking to leave their mark.

Aw, looks like I don't proceed to the finals!  Oh well, that's okay, it was fun participating in this contest!  I at least made it to number 7, so that's something! Haha, good luck for the remaining contestants!  May the Force be with you...always!

 

Oh, wait, that's the wrong quotation to have in a KH contest, isn't it?

My next entry is finally complete :

 

Thank you Felixx & Master Eraqus for getting your videos in early.

 

We're just waiting for Charlotte Kinouchi & IwasBornAsVentus. Once they enter their videos I'll decide a winner for both matches.

There finally this video is up after a long delayed rendering in Adobe. But the video itself was very fun to make wish I could say the same to the rendering.

Didn't quite finish the video but I hope it's good enough! You may wish to watch the original Naruto Shippuden opening that this video is based on so it makes more sense.

Oh well. It was fun to take part in this contest and found a good reason to make a video, which I love making.

 

While I have lost, I had already felt like a winner just by being a part of this. May the best editor win! Good luck you guys!
