Hi, everyone!
I'm happy to announce that the Anime Boston 2023 AMV Contest is open for submissions!
You can find the full rules here, and our FAQ here. There are no major changes in the content or technical rules, but there has been one change in the awards. The Editors' Choice award has been retired, and a new Made in New England award has been added.
Important points:
Deadline: February 25, 2023, at 11:59PM Eastern
Freshness: Videos may have premiered no earlier than April 7, 2022
Number Limit: Maximum two videos per editor, only one per category
I know I say this every year, but it's still true; I'm always blown away by the creativity in the videos that get submitted, and I can't wait to see what people come up with this year.
Good luck to everyone that submits!

It's been years since I entered this competition (last entered in 2015 and 2017, didn't make finals either year). I have one AMV nearly finished that I plan to enter and might have a second one (in another category) ready before the deadline. Wish me luck! 

AMV Finalists:
2011 - Dogs of War Drama
2010 - Older Guy Other
2010 - Celestial Scars Action
2009 - Soul of a Lotus Eater Action
2008 - Breadline Action

Is there a separate form for Hentai AMVs? The one in the rules linked is the one for AMVs.
If it's the same form to use for Hentai AMVs, then there are multiple problems...
- Real first name and last name, mailing address, etc. -- HMV creators already had to flee numerous sites that forced IRL verification for hentai AMVs.
- Age Confirmation checkbox is for 13 years of age or older, not 18
- Phone Number
This is very discouraging to anyone making HMVs who wants to respect their privacy. Otherwise, they'd just upload to spankbang or HMV Mania.
