To learn more about the contest read all of the information below:

Submitting Clips
If you are already a member of Trophy Clips simply Upload your video clip and it is automatically entered for a chance to win a prize. Not a member yet? Sign Up is free and as a member you can upload videos, share videos with friends, vote and comment on other videos and best of all you could win for having the best Trophy Video or Trophy Picture.

Acceptable Video Clips
The Video contest is for those of us amateurs who fish and hunt with camcorder in hand. Prizes will only be awarded to submissions that contain hunting or fishing content (wildlife in action is good too). Videos with any advertising content will not be eligible to win any Trophy Video Contest. This means that any video with verbal, written, graphically depicted or other means of communicating a company, product, service or other website will not be eligible to win prizes. Trophy Clips reserves the right to not include any videos based on our determination of advertising content or content that does not relate to fishing or hunting. Remember to keep videos clean for our user community. Trophy Clips is a hunting and fishing community, so kill shots, catching fish, cleaning fish and game is to be expected, but please be courteous to younger members and restrict or limit when possible offensive language.

How Videos Are Judged
Videos are assigned a ranking value based on several factors, but the most important factor is the views per day. Using views per day eliminates a ranking based on the total number of views. This means a video that has been active for 40 days has equal chance of winning as one that has been active for 90 days. Other important judging factors include the number of unique comments, overall rating, number of times rated and unique views.

Hints: Make your video title and description eye catching and to the point. Keep your videos between one and five minutes if possible and try to keep the content relevant to keep the viewer engaged. Winning videos often are well produced and don't necessarily display big fish or game. Viewers want to be entertained by fish, game and a video that is enjoyable to watch. Be sure to tell your friends and family to watch your video and spread the word! Post links to your video on forums to really boost the views per day. Keep in mind that if you don't win your video will continue to be eligible for all 2009 video contest awards.
