Those prizes... Man, they're great! I think I may enter this one. One thing, I don't really like "you must be subscribed" rule. It seems a little like a way to lure subscribers in. Well, it doesn't matter really for me since I'm already subscribed. Also, two questions. One, is it okay if I just mention at the end of the video it was made for this instead of putting in a logo? Two, what is the logo for this contest anyway?

This is the (Updated) logo....

You'll have to use the LOGO this year. Next time, I'lll change a few rules to make everyone happy, but for now, you'll just have to stick the image in.

So, "Lego themes" means that it has to be something like City or Ninjago, right? And not something generic like Steampunk, or licensed like Star Wars? Can the theme be something copyrighted that Lego doesn't have the licence to? (Say, Halo or Doctor Who.) And you said no copyrighted music in a comment, but what if someone offers to provide a clip without said music for the awards video?

Not that I need those answered, since my current WIP film will be way too long, but those are questions that you'll probably be asked later, so you may want to be thinking of the answers now.

Good luck on the contest, and I hope it gets lots of entries! mini/yes

No, you are not limited to themes LEGO has made. It can be anything. Doctor Who, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, ect...

I have updated the rules. If you want to use copyrighted music, you can as long as you provide me with a non copyrighted piece if you win.

Thanks for posting,
-Zach

I want to make an entry for this mini/smile Btw, I think you have a mistake in the logo. It says "Sponsered by..."
Isn't it "Sponsored by"?

I need a new name! HELP

I might enter, but I'm not a fan of "YouTuber contests" like this. Also, as do others, I don't like the "subscribe me" rule, since that isn't really fair.

Have you seen a big-chinned boy?

Does it have to be a theme, or just a stop motion? I.e. does it need to pertain to a theme of lego's, or can the film be comprised of things that aren't/haven't been lego themes? Thanks in advance mini/smile

No, it doesn't have to be a theme.  Do whatever you want. You could even do a cool animation just using bricks.

I already uploaded my video, and now i see the logo is 2 s instead of 3. is that still acceptable, or do I need to re-do?
