✅ All video content must be original, produced specifically for this competition, and must not infringe any copyright or intellectual property of others.

✅ Videos must not contain any elements that are:

       ❌ Offensive or hateful towards any race, religion, or royalty

       ❌ Sexually explicit, violent, or inappropriate

       ❌ Politically sensitive or promoting discriminatory ideologies
