FAQs

  • Of course not! Not only are our attendees and judges friendly people, but we all want to support each other. This is a great opportunity to get your work in front of the best in the industry!

  • No! Anyone can enter, even if they don’t plan on coming. That said, we hope you’ll consider joining us if you’re chosen as a finalist so you have the chance to accept your prize live should you win.

  • Run Time - Should be exactly 30-seconds

    Delivery - A 1920x1080p .mp4 file, H264 codec no longer than 200mb in size

  • Nope, each reel must reflect the work of an individual. It’s fine to submit work you’ve made at a studio, of course, but you should be a primary part of the team that made the work and you should not submit work made by others even if they work with you at the same place.

  • You do not need to specifically have rights to the work shown, but you MUST have permission to present anything including audio. If you show a clip from something that’s under an NDA and get in trouble, Dash Bash is not liable.
