The Main AMV Contest
Any AMVs submitted to this should be for a general convention audience. An all-aged audience may be in attendance. Any AMV disqualified due to content will be shifted to the NSFW Contest or an After Hours showcase dependent upon the Editor’s request.
The NSFW AMV Contest
Try your hand at being naughty or giving nightmares! Two categories available and live action videos will be placed in one of those categories as normal. Relaxed restrictions on violence, gore, nudity, or language. Please see the rules page for more information.
AMV Showcase
AUSA AMV Staff will choose videos that did not make the final cut. If an AMV is disqualified but it falls within the rules of the main contest, it will be shown here time permitting. You may also request to have a video go directly into this showcase. The AMV staff will determine what content will be placed in this panel. Videos going directly into the showcases will not count against the amount of videos allowed for the submission in the contests.
Submission Deadline
Submissions are due by August 17th, 2025. All submissions must be attributed to an entry into the Google Docs form for submissions. The file name must match exactly to the question asking for the file name. Finalists will be announced on or about September 14, 2025, with winners announced within 2 weeks after the end of the event.
