5. Entries may not include copyrighted material (i.e. music, videos, photos, graphics, etc.) without a signed release form. Entries will be disqualified if they include any of the aforementioned copyrighted material. If you think there is even the slightest chance that you have any copyrighted material included in your entry, you should remove it.

 
Do not diminish your chances of winning because of copyright issues. If there is some doubt whether or not your entry has copyrighted material included in it, the judges reserve the right to request proof that it is not copyrighted material.
 
Below are some examples of what will get an entry disqualified:
  • Having people singing copyrighted music/lyrics in your entry.
  • Including graphics or images that you downloaded from sites like Google Images.
  • Including videos downloaded from sites like YouTube.
 
 
6. Entries produced by current students between April 2021 and April 2022 are eligible.

8. Make sure you submit only the portion to be judged, do not exceed times listed for each category.
 
 
9. If appropriate, one production may be submitted to more than one category.
