CON.TXT 2023 Premieres and Nearly New Submissions

[corbae]

We're now accepting vid submissions for the Premieres and Nearly New shows at CON.TXT 2023!

Vids for both Premieres and Nearly New will be due by 11:59 PM EDT on Sunday, May 14 (what time is that for me?). This deadline is firm. There is a slight chance that we may be able to grant a very short extension, so if you think you may need one, please email us at vids@contxt.club as soon as possible.

You don't need to be registered for CON.TXT 2023 to submit vids to either show, but vids from registered attendees will be prioritized if we receive more vids than will fit in the show. You will need to create a Conline account and join the CON.TXT Conline page to submit your vids.

PREMIERES INTEREST POLL

To help us gauge how many premieres we should plan for, please fill out this quick interest poll. This step is optional and doesn't commit you to anything!

PREMIERES GUIDELINES

We accept premieres for any fandom and with any type of content, but if it would be helpful to you to get a sense of the typical tone of CON.TXT vid shows, you can check out the 2021 playlist. Vidders may submit up to 2 premiering vids, or up to 3 if one or more of the vids is a collaboration with another vidder.

Prior to submitting, please remember that a premieres USB and/or DVD will be distributed as part of optional con bags, and by submitting a premiere you're allowing it to be included on this USB/DVD.

Full requirements and instructions for upload are listed below. In brief, we will need a YouTube or Vimeo upload and a downloadable copy to be included in the con bag USB/DVD.

NEARLY NEW GUIDELINES

Nearly New vids are those first posted online or shown at a con in the last year (on May 1, 2022 or later). Vidders may submit up to 2 vids to Nearly New, or up to 3 if one or more of the vids is a collaboration with another vidder.

Instructions for upload are listed below.

Panel Voting Extended Through April 17

[alpheratz]

Panel voting for CON.TXT 2023 has been extended one week, through Monday, April 17 at midnight EDT (what time is that for me?).

You still have time to vote for the panels you'd like to see and to choose which Open panels—panels in need of mods—you would like to volunteer to moderate.

We have a lot of Open panels this year, and a lot of chances to get involved! You don’t need to have modded a panel before—we’ll have guidance and resources for new mods. You can rank up to five of your top choices of panels to moderate. (Don’t worry—we won’t assign you to more than three panels!)

If you suggested or volunteered to mod a panel in the panel proposal post and see it listed in the poll as an Open panel, please select it as one of your mod choices in the poll if you are still interested!

If you suggested a panel and made arrangements in the panel proposal post to co-mod it with another person, you will still see it listed as an Open panel unless you specifically edited or commented on your post to mark it as Closed. We will contact you to find out if you still need additional co-mods before we assign any more people.

We strive to offer a well-balanced and wide range of panel topics. The voting tells us which panels are the most popular, but it also helps us choose among similar panels and decide which suggestions might be better combined. We don't use a strict numbers cut-off to determine our programming.

We're looking forward to seeing you all (virtually) at CON.TXT 2023! Vote now for your preferred panels.
