- Each round has individual length requirements.
- Videos must be new and made for the rounds.
- GMV Only. This includes spin off movies in the style of the original game such as FF7AC. Any anime style GAME is fine but NO anime shows/tv spinoffs/movie spinoffs, as these would be classed as anime. You may use any stock footage/BG/Overlays to enhance your videos, but the bulk must be games.

Rules for this Round:
- Write your entrant number in the description or title of your video.
Numbers are here: http://gmvawards.forumotion.co.uk/t17-bbt-entrant-list

- Any effects, techniques, couples, pairing, are acceptable. Go crazy!
- Deadline: August 1st
