Vid Show Submissions are now OPEN!

We are now accepting submissions for the 2023 vid show!

Working on a new vid? We love premieres! Finished up something this year that made you proud? Send it in! Even if you're unable to attend, we'd love to feature your work.

For the non-vidders out there, if you have friends who vid, please encourage them to consider submitting something. And, if there's a vid or two that really gave you feels, send us a link and/or ask the vidder to get in touch with us about submitting it for the show!
