the general concept of the contest, or for any reason FanimeCon or the
Contest Director may see fit.

All files must be playable on the Contest Director's version of the

responsibility for ensuring that the video is playable. You can find
information on file conversion in the FMV 2012 rules.

Contest Awards

Awards/Categories

Contest Director's Pick (Chosen by Contest Director)
Audience's pick (Chosen by Audience) :
The Audience's Pick will be chosen based auditory voting of attendees present. If the Contest Director determines there is not a clear winner based on auditory voting, the prize will be split between the two entries that received the most votes as determined by the Contest Director.

Special for 2012 - Best use of Tentacles (Chosen by Contest Director):
The people demanded it, so we will try to deliver! In order to encourage more tentacles, a special prize may be awarded to the entry deemed by the contest director that has the best use of tentacles. This prize is outside of the two above prizes, so it is possible to win this in addition to above prizes.

Each winner will receive a prize provided by the Contest Director.

For any additional questions, please contact the Contest Director at

I just need to find the perfect song now. I had silver last year, but this year I'm gonna get the gold(I'm sure in hentai context this sounds wrong).

Golden tentacle perhaps?

Oooo!  I can't wait!  I already have the rough cut of mine done, but the tentacle award presents a new challenge.  Are we allowed to submit more than one entry?

Question posted at amv.org forums:

Can older videos be submitted?
-Yes, if they haven't been shown in past years since I've run the contest. After the contest I've done an exhibition to round out the hour set aside for the contest. If you want to see if it has been shown before, submit it as normal and I will check and see if I've shown it before.


REMEMBER: ONLY 11 DAYS LEFT TO SUBMIT ENTRIES!

Question; Is it ok to use words on the images? I won't be doing anything like subtitles but a certain scene would be really funny if I added certain texts. Wanna be extra sure.

I'm almost done with my video, just need to move some scenes around.

You can do pretty much whatever you want, as long as it is within the rules. Besides that, it's really all up to the audience.

Hell, the Pokemon HMV has text and that's what really makes it funny.

Excellent. I will avenge my humiliating defeat last year, and ride to glory!

And also, my entry email has "no subject" in the title. Sorry about that. ^_^;;

I don't know if there is anything that can be done about that, the showing happens in the Hentai room and its size has been the same for several years.

I don't have any easy way to host the files that were shown, sorry. I'll see if I can set something up in the coming months and I'll post here if I get it setup.

If I can get name of the videos, I could try to find them online or maybe on AMV.org. YOu can always just host it on a free host, such as rapidshare.com or mediafire.com

I was entry number two. The one with the video game nipples and lots of fluids shots next to non hentai clips.
Obviously the file is nsfw.
