Important Notes

HOW TO CREATE AND ENTER YOUR VIDEO  

1. Prepare your choir to film your entry pieces using the same criteria as the event. Stick to the number of voices, pieces, and time allowed. You can film anywhere like a school hall, gym, or local hall, but keep background noise to a minimum. Make sure the light is bright enough to see your choir.

2. Set up your camera and audio so we can see and hear your choir. You can use a mobile phone or video equipment and can set it up in one place. You don’t need to include multiple camera shots. Test the video first to make sure the audio is clear.

3. You don't need to introduce the pieces on film; just add that information on the portal as part of your entry.

4. Film your choir performing all your pieces in the same session. Please create ONE VIDEO.

5. Upload your video onto a VIMEO or YOUTUBE account. Save the link created.  

6. Once you have entered and paid for the event via the 'Enter Event' button, head to 'My Entries' in your Sydney Eisteddfod Entrant Portal and click on 'Performance Materials' to submit your VIMEO or YOUTUBE link.

Deadline for submissions: 4.00pm, Tuesday 27 May 2025.
