Video Submission. All participants must submit publicly accessible videos via YouTube link (may be attached to the application, or entered later on the 2021 Bach Festival Video Recording Submittal page). The SIPF takes no responsibility for videos that have permissions set to limit viewership or are published through any other video sharing platform (vimeo, etc). Ensure that your video is viewable by a third party, even if you choose to make them unlisted. Participants are free to submit up to three separate video links when applying for the multiple works subdivision (all works are not required to be on the same video link). The first link must contain a brief introduction by the performer stating his or her name for verification purposes (a first name that matches the application entry will suffice). This introduction may be attached to the first performance, or included as a wholly separate link. Submit a recorded video between now and 9:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time (UTC/GMT-7) Saturday, October 30, 2021. If you choose to apply before you have prepared your video links, you may later return and submit your video via this online submission form. Record your selections as many times as you would like. Recordings must conform to the following standards and procedures: • Recordings must consist of unedited, uninterrupted video footage of the participant from a single camera angle with coverage of the performer’s hands and face at all times (one track per single movement; separate tracks for multiple pieces or movements is permissible). • Recordings must begin with the participant stating his or her name in a clear voice (first track only, or submitted on a wholly separate introduction track). • Recordings must be cued to begin within five seconds after the performer identifies him or herself (a first name that matches the application entry will suffice). • Recordings must feature the work with which the participant originally entered. • Recordings must be uploaded to YouTube and set for unlisted or public access (no private listings requiring permissions). The entry form will accept your links. Enter the performer’s name exactly like you entered in the original competition entry form. The form will go offline when the deadline lapses. Please ensure you receive an automated confirmation message within minutes of your entry. Failure to receive a message indicates a transmission issue or incomplete submission. If you don’t get a confirmation immediately, write to xxxx@xxxxxxxxxx...
