Cosplay Contest Rules:
- Just ONE entry per person. That means you will be submitting one image or one video. You MAY create an image collage to show off as many angles and details as you like, but it must be one image file.
- If you have submitted your cosplay as part of a group, you may not submit it individually - you sink or swim with the team!
- Everyone will be able to view your submission, as the voting is public. Make sure everything is PG. Depictions of hateful imagery and gratuitous violence will be disqualified as well (ie: pose WITH the giant fantasy weapons, don’t use them ;) ).
- Your submission must include your name, the category to which you are submitting (kids, youth, adult, or group), the name of the character or characters portrayed and the name of the property or fandom they’re from. Then tell us a little bit about the character you’re portraying and why you like them!
- Video submissions need to be a minute or shorter and make sure the quality is good enough to see all the hard work you put into your cosplay!
- Digital editing is allowed, but please keep it to minor tweaks! If you NEED to make your eyes glow, go for it! But easy on the special effects and filters that might obscure or distort the actual image of your costume.
Fanart Contest Rules
- Just ONE entry per person, per category. So you may enter up to three pieces - one in drawing and painting, one in photography and one Linn the Librarian redesign!
- Submissions can be either traditional art OR digital art for the drawing / paintings category.
- Linn the Librarian Redesign pieces must be a drawing or painting and may be digital or traditional. Entering in this category means you agree to potentially having your design recreated and used in future Lib-Con promotional images!
- Everyone will be able to view your submission, as the voting is public! Make sure everything is PG. Depictions of hateful imagery or gratuitous violence will be disqualified.
- Your submission must include your name, the character or characters depicted as well as the property or fandom they’re from.
