Our Mobile Wallpaper Contest was very successful.

As promised, it’s time for the mobile video contest. This contest will be open to anyone who wishes to submit between April 20th and 5PM ET on May 5th.

The guidelines are as follows:

1. All video must be submitted in QuickTime format (.mov). I will handle the final compression to 3gp for the cell phone. If created on a mobile phone, you may submit in 3gp.

2. Videos must be under two minutes.

3. Videos must be under 8MB.

4. Videos must be designed for small-screen playback (eg. no small text, etc.) legibility on a smalll screen will be a factor.

UPDATE: 5. You must and submit your own work and/or have the right to submit it to this contest.

(Note: Videos may be, but do not need to be created on a cell phone, just designed for the cell phone.)

All videos submitted that meet the guidelines will be offered for judging.

Judging will be carried out via a poll on this blog. The poll will limit voting to one vote per person/incoming IP address.

All individuals submitting videos agree to allow us to display their video for viewing both online and via our mobile WAP site. Your name and a link to your website will be featured along with your entry.

First prize will be a $50 Amazon gift certificate. Second prize will be a $25 Amazon gift certificate. Prizes will be awarded based on the results of the website poll.

  1. What kind of video do you want us to make ? A funny video ? or any sort of video as long as it is taken by mobile phone?

  2. You can actually submit anything, as long as it has been designed for the mobile phone. The subject matter and topic can be whatever you choose. The only critera are the ones listed above.

    Thanks for your interest!

  3. I can submit as many video as i want rite ?

  4. Sure. I should also add that you must have the rights to whatever you submit, ie, you can’t submit someone else’s work.

  5. Re Justin’s comments on April 24th, 2006 which is linked to 2dayblog.com.
    The real person behind the posting of daily entries in 2dayblog.com is Malaysian Justin Yap. Justin’s own website is kcyap.com but he committed a wordpress contest scam earlier this year and he is now hiding behind his buddy’s 2dayblog.com website. His website kcyap.com is now redirected to 2dayblog.com. If you type “kcyap +scam” in Google search box, you can view pages relating to the scam committed by kcyap.
