Why are only people in the US eligible to enter and vote? The goal of the film contest is to educate people about the American Muslim experience, which is why both submissions and voting are only open to people in the U.S..
I took some music off of a CD. Is this okay? All music used in your film submission must have releases or clearances from whoever owns the music rights. That’s why you are welcome to use our pre-cleared music included in the Director’s Toolbox.
Do you have to be Muslim to enter? No, this contest is open to anyone in the United States.
How can I tell if my film is “Muslim” enough? We are looking for compelling stories about the American Muslim experience; that will be the major criteria.
Is there a difference between being an Arab American and a Muslim American? See our link to better understand that being Muslim is a religion and a philosophical belief, not a matter of race or ethnicity.
I uploaded my film but I don’t see it on the site yet. What happened? Your film is still under review by our moderators. You will receive email notification when your submission has been accepted and is live on the site or has been found unacceptable due to stated criteria".
I’ve just seen an inappropriate comment, what can I do? All registered members have the ability to flag inappropriate comments. These are then reviewed by the moderator who will decide if these are inappropriate or not.
