Before Video:
To participate, you will be required to submit a short video introducing yourself, to be uploaded during the registration process. The judges will need to see your starting point; that is, your physique at the time the video is recorded. This allows for an impartial assessment/comparison of your transformation.
Before Video Requirements:
All submitted videos needs to be in focus, and taken from appropriate angles in good lighting. Recommend you record the video by either: Placing your video recording device at eye-level, or Have someone record a video of you at your eye-level.
The video must not be edited, cut, spliced, or joined in any way. It must be a continuous video completing all of the following elements:
A short bio about you (no more than 15 seconds), and why you are entering the Transformation competition. Continuing the video, you’ll need to have your full body in the frame, for a minimum of 3 seconds, while completing each of the following five positions/poses described below:
Front (Newspaper) shot – Facing camera with one arm at your side and other arm holding a current newspaper visibly showing the date. This should be a current issue of the national or local newspaper in order to validate the day you took the video.
