To expand
the idea of the "Ghosts" project, Nine Inch Nails is inviting anyone
and everyone to create visuals to accompany the album's music. In a few
months, we'll be gathering the entries we feel are particularly
exceptional and highlighting them. There are no rules to this – be as
creative as you like. Create a music video, or a short film, or
something completely abstract. Use only one track from the album, or
use multiple tracks.

Join this group and add your video to submit it to the film festival.
Some tips and guidelines for video submissions:
–
Prepare your content in the highest resolution you can, and hang on to
the original files, in case we want to use your video for something
beyond the scope of YouTube.
– This project will be going on for quite a while, so take your time. Please don't just submit simple image slideshows.
–
This isn't a place to submit your musical remixes or vocal performances
that don't include any video content – if you have audio-only creations
using Ghosts music, please contribute those to http://remix.nin.com
–
Incorporating copyrighted materials (clips from movies, unlicensed
stock footage, music by other artists, etc) into your video might limit
our ability to feature it in the future. The same goes for filming of
people or locations without their permission. Anything goes on YouTube,
but we'll have to play by the rules for other outlets, so if you want
your video to be eligible for anything we come up with in the future,
make sure its content is fully cleared.
– Clips that are clearly
not legitimate festival submissions (i.e. promotional videos for
unrelated content with Ghosts music thrown over them) will be discarded.
–
Make sure we can contact you about your video. Upload from your own
YouTube account that you check messages on, or include contact info in
your profile.
– Please don't submit multiple versions of the
same video or very similar videos for several songs. If you really have
to re-submit a new version of your video, remove the original from the
group and note that your new video is a re-submission.
– If your video is rejected, chances are there's a good reason for it. Please don't continually re-submit the same videos.
–
This is not a place for your videos of older NIN songs. Please only
upload videos that include at least some music from Ghosts.
