Finished filming and most of the editing today. Now the hard part, writing up a non-generic script that will hopefully make people laugh a bit.

How long is your video?? I believe Gambit said somewhere up above in these post that if it is a little over 3 minutes it should be okay… so If you are around like 3 minutes and 15 seconds. I don’t think He will mind. But if its like close to 4 minutes, than idk… That’s really up to the Man himself to decide. Either way, I wish us all good luck on this contest and it really was very fun to do.

Sounds about right. Ideally I don’t want people making their videos over 3 minutes long, but if you’ve tried your best to fit it in and there’s genuinely no way that you can make it under 3 minutes without detracting from the video somehow, then I’m willing to allow it.

“My video is 2:53, I have another thing I can add in but if I put it in it’ll be 3:15” - Not Ok

“I’ve concise-d my life story as much as possible, but it’s still 3:10 and if I cut anything out it won’t make sense” - Ok

The time rule isn’t as huge of an issue now since we haven’t had as many submissions as I thought we were. Still, 3 minutes is ideal and I’d rather people not take advantage of the flexibility allowed. ;D
