  • FAQs on filling up the Entry Form

    Can teams sign up for more than one category?

    • Should a school or organisation decide to register more than 1 team in the same category, there should be no repetition of team members across teams; the same team members can, however, participate across categories, e.g. Member A can take part in Junior Category and Short Films Category

    • Should a team participate in more than one category, the same storyline cannot be repeated

     

    How many entry forms should I submit if I’m sending more than one team?

     

    • Kindly submit one entry form per team

     

    • E.g. if School A is sending 2 teams for Open Category and 1 team for Short Films category, School A should submit a total of 3 entry forms
