This may be a silly question, but are we allowed to do text overlays with small captions?

-Running time must not exceed 10:00 or one song with a minimum of 3:00.

does that mean I have to use one song with a minimum of 3? cause I had planned to use a bunch of songs I'm confused

Yeah actually I was wondering the same thing, thanks PB!

Yeah I should clarify that a bit. You can use as many songs as you need in a 10 minute span (just please be careful with the sound editing and making the songs work together) but if you use one song it must be over 3 minutes. Does that help clarify things?

You sure can. Whatever you need to do to make your video work the way you want it to as long as it still follows the contest rules.

I have a good idea and everything, but I only got about 30 seconds in before I gave up. I can't think of what to put in and what not to. This is going to drive me crazy - it's too hard!

I agree.

And I went and introduced all the main characters and had the crash and the monster and looked at the length and it was 5:30 minutes. >.<

It's ridculous. It's too hard. I give up.

I got done introducing the crash, characters, and monsters, and I'm at 2:53 minutes.

Yeah..oh well, but I like this challenge

I just wish we could have up to 15 minutes or so.
