• At least one of the mod elements must appear in every shot of your entry
I am sorry but Still don't understand
What don't you get? Do you not know what a shot is?

What he means is what he means. Reread it, PLEASE! At least one of the two mod elements must be showing in every shot of your entry. Meaning choose the letter, "B" or green touching black. You could use both MOD elements just make sure that they are visible in EVERY shot you take.

Correct me if i am wrong. So each "shot" u take has to have the mod elements in it like say if a minfigure is walking to the mod element, then the next shot you take is him looking at it and behind him the mod elements r like right behind him and the next shot you take is him looking at the mod elements again. Is that right?
So I was correct, right?
OK so, Every frame you capture must have, either the letter B,b,p or a green piece touching a black piece.

*sigh*...
GARSH. It's not THAT hard to understand.
*cheesy voice*
Say, there is Bob walking across the screen from left to right. There is a table with a mod element behind the path he is walking. Bob passes the table, but in one frame, Bob blocks the mod element. OH NO. The mod element is not seen! Will the entry be disqualified? NO. Because though one frame does not have the mod, it's still there behind Bob, though it's not seen. It was just blocked. It was there in the shot, just not on that 1 frame.
Okay people here's the deal about the whole "shot thing". Frames make up a shot, shots make up a scene and scenes make a movie. The easy way to think of it is if you switch camera angles it's a new shot, there are exceptions to this if you have a specific question about a particular instance send me a PM. The point, really, of the rule is to ensure films are made within the one week time limit, not to go overboard and be legalistic. A clear effort to include the mod element should suffice.

Ok i'm going to try to make an entry!
i 'm going to try to make an entry !
Just got internet access again last night and saw this! I'm in.
A frame is a frame, a shot is a sequence of frames, a scene is a sequence of shots, a movie is a sequence of scenes.
If in a shot (that is a sequence of frames), the character casually passes in front of the mod, it is fine, you're not going to be disqualified, as long as in the previous frames of the same shot the mod was visible.
Now, may I remind you of an unanswered question?
Is it ok to have Italian audio with English subtitles?

Yeah, I was wondering if it's okay to have some Italian audio mixed with English audio.
My film is a homage to Italian horror of the 70s, and like some conversations are in Italian, but most are in English, is that okay?
I've got a great idea for the contest! 
I'm animating my entry now!
NOO! I can't enter because my compter has to get a new battery and it takes 2-3 weeks to get it to work again ;,(
BRAWL CURSE,WHY!?!?!? Good luck to you all! 
I just heard yesterday from Mr.Rundown101 (he's who I'm working with) has a super slow computer so I'll have to animate a few extra scenes though it seems the curse went easy on us compared to you guys.
Anyway, we'll have our entry in on time.

I don't see why it wouldn't be accepted. It's just another language.

Should be okay, unless the Italian is containing bad language.
.I have one more question. What if I do a Shacky cam and I move it away from the elements and you could see half, would I get disqualified?
