2021 ULTI.TV Video Making Competition!
We had a small but interesting season in Europe, let's showcase it!
We want as much new people to see Ultimate Frisbee, but most of the footage is full games. This is great when itβs LIVE, because they can be seen by friends, family, colleagues and everyone.
But not many people will rewatch a full game! Especially when youβre not invested. Therefore, we want to challenge you to make videos remixing, compiling or highlighting last years (tad small) season!
These videos should to spread like wildfire on the Internet!
A competition is nothing if you canβt win anything awesome! Together with our partners we came up with a few prizes below!
So if you feel creative, go bananas! Make something epic!Β
Everyone can join, but how can you win?
Anyone with some editing skills or a phone nowadays can join the competition. Work the YouTube algorithm, the Instagram, TikTok, etc.
Your video must be publicly available, 1 week before the Elite (Bologna) Invite weβll announce the winners, thatβs on the weekend of April 2nd.
Videos should be at least 42 seconds. So reels, shorts and TikToks work! Anything from the 2021 European season counts!
Pro tips
Make almost like a commercial, for 2022. Make use of the highlights and the values of the sponsors! (maybe weβll use your video in a livestream! With permission, duh)
Do a voice over, make animations, just be creative and keep it personal!
Make a good opener so that viewers will stick around, the longer your video will be shown, or the more often (because how funny it is) the more views you will get in most social video algorithms.
What can you win?
Every partner offers a different prize, weβll add more prizes as we go under this post. They will be the judge based on relevance of the sponsor, creativity, view count and this share-ability (huge points when your videos are memed).
