4/18: We are reaching the final stages of judging! We will be asking some “Entrants” to record a short segment to the end of your video. This is to prove authenticity and originality. Entrants will be asked to record himself/herself saying a specific phrase, to make sure videos were not taken/copied, and actually belong to the Entrant.

Driveway Impressions Logo
Driveway Impressions Logo (Large Version)
so this video can be anything at all? Do you guys put the logo in for me or where would I get the logo to put it in there?
Hi Spencer, Thanks for the interest. The video can be about anything you think will be engaging, entertaining and unique. We are looking for something that people haven’t seen before that will target a new niche. Winners may even be asked to make more videos while getting paid! The logo will be added by the maker of the video; I have provided a logo in the details. I look forward to seeing your video!
Is it ok if the video is slightly longer than one minute? Also, can you submit more than one video? If so, can you win a prize for more than one video?
Hi Michael,
You can enter up to 10 video submissions; however you can only win once. Also, the video cannot exceed 1 minute in length. We look forward to seeing your video!
The rules say no music, do sound effects count?
Hey John,
Thanks for the comment. Yes, feel free to use as much sound effects as you’d like!
You can use royalty free music right?
Alright one more question, i’m 17 so if i make the video is it alright if my dad does all the legal stuff and puts everything in his name? Or does he have to help with the video some and then he can choose the title of the “entrant”? thanks
Hey, I have a couple submissions for you…I was wondering if you could offer a larger resolution logo for our endtitles, so it won’t look nasty if I wanted to make it fill the screen in a 720×1280 res movie.
Thanks.
Hey Chris,
Thanks for the comment! I just added a larger version of our logo that should work better for you. If you have any problems submitting the video via email (like if its to large) , let me know and we can use a different method. Thanks, and we look forward to your videos!

Yes, I just finished a final edit/export and attempted to send it to your social@drivewayimpressions.com email, but it exceeds the maximum for attached files. Also, my second submission will more than likely have the same issue.
This first one is 125.2MB…have any suggestions for an alternative means of delivery?
Thanks.
Hi Chris,
For the larger files can you use Megaupload (http://www.megaupload.com/). It is free and does not require an account. Simply upload the file (up to 500MB). It will give you a link to the file and you can send that link to me along with your name and other information. Let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks Chris and we look forward to your video!

Hi there, I am a film student trying to keep the creativity flowing, is there any chance current submissions are viewable to the general public for inspiration? There is just such a wide range of possibilities.
Hi Evan,
Sure! We are currently reviewing videos now and should be posting shortly within the next few days. I will provide a link on the Contest Page when that is available. Thanks!
Hey Evan,
We have reviewed some videos and have uploaded them onto YouTube. I have included the link. Hope this stirs up some ideas! We look forward to seeing your videos!! http://www.youtube.com/divideocontest
nice, thanks. Will be putting something together eventually. I know the video can be about anything, but I came up with a great idea marketing mr driveway dr that we are going to create. Thanks.
When and how do we find out the winner?
Hello Spencer,
When all videos are reviewed and judged results will be posted here on our blog. There are still videos that are being uploaded as we speak, that were submitted up to the deadline. Results of the video contest should be determined and posted in a couple of weeks. Until then, you can stay updated on all the videos being submitted by checking out our Youtube page! http://www.youtube.com/user/divideocontest
if you didn’t receive a message does that mean we lost?
