By entering the 2008 EnhanceTV ATOM Film Television and Multimedia Awards (‘Awards’) Award entrants (‘Entrants’) agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions. Failure to abide by these terms and conditions may render an Entrant ineligible for the Awards regardless of payment of the Award Fees.
- Entrants must submit their entries in the following manner:
- Film, TV and video entries must be submitted on DVD or standard PAL VHS tapes;
- Multimedia entries must be submitted on CD or DVD or URL;
- Multimedia entries must include necessary software, passwords and instructions for viewing the production which is the subject of the entry;
- A URL must be submitted for website entries. Access codes for member specific areas must be clearly noted and attached to the entry form. If judges are unable to access the URL due to server or site error, this may render the Entrant ineligible for the Awards regardless of payment of the Award fee.
- An Entrant may submit a production into more than one Award category provided that the Entrant pays the requisite Award Fee for each category. Details of the Award Fees and the methods of payment are outlined on this entry form.
- An Entrant may submit multiple productions into any given Award category provided that the Entrant pays the requisite Award Fee for each production submitted.
- An Entrant must supply additional copies of the Entrant’s production for each Award category entered. For example, if an Entrant enters the same title in three categories the Entrant must provide ATOM with three copies of the production in the appropriate media for each relevant category (described at 1 above), and three copies of each of the completed Entry Forms and synopsis.
- ATOM reserves the right to re-categorise entries if ATOM, at its sole discretion, considers that it is appropriate to do so.
- Primary and Secondary schools are limited to five (5) entries for the flat rate Award Fee of $66.00. Any additional entries cost $6.60 per production.
- To be eligible for the Awards, Entrants must complete an Entry Form (including the provision of details of their intended audience) and provide a Synopsis (of no more than 100 words) as a written document or as text file for each production. Entry Forms are available from the ATOM website www.atomawards.org or from 14a Dalgety Street St Kilda VIC 3182 Australia.

- Productions entered in previous ATOM Awards are ineligible for the 2008 Awards.
- ATOM reserves the right to use entrant content (including part of any production submitted by an Entrant) in any form it chooses for the 2008 EnhanceTV ATOM Awards. Submission of an entry for an Award by an Entrant constitutes consent by that Entrant for ATOM to use that Entrant’s name and photo for publicity purposes.
- If Entrants are short-listed as Finalists, Entrants must submit a 60 second clip of the short-listed production for the 2008 EnhanceTV ATOM Awards presentation (mini DV or 32 minute DV Cam).

- An Entrant is solely responsible for ensuring that all necessary copyright and other relevant rights and authorisations for an Entrant’s productions have been obtained prior to submitting an entry. ATOM takes no responsibility for any failure by an Entrant to obtain the necessary authorisations. Entrants warrant that their productions (and any material comprising their productions, including not limited to any Clip) do not infringe the intellectual property or any rights of any person. Entrants will fully indemnify ATOM against any loss, costs, expenses, demands or liability, whether direct or indirect, arising out of a claim by a third party or another party. If requested by ATOM, entrants must provide irrevocable consent to ATOM in its absolute discretion reproducing, publishing, copying, adapting, performing, communicating, showing or exhibiting in or to the public, materially distorting, altering or in any other way changing or using the productions or (where applicable) a substantial part or adaptation of it with or without authorship; in any medium; in any context; and in any way ATOM sees fit.
