Testimonial Video
Did you get involved with the A' Design Awards and had a positive experience? Would you like to turn your positive experience into a video testimonial and get complimentary nomination tickets to enter your works for design awards consideration? If so, the Testimonial Video initiative is great for you.

To take part in this program, wear your best costume, have your make-up, find a great spot with beautiful setting and light up your scene. Simply, share your positive experience on camera.

Your video title may be the experience and for the video description and comments, we would be glad if you could link to the A' Design Award website.

We want to kindly remind that the purpose of the Testimonial Video campaign is two folds; first it is to provide an opportunity for our audience to take part in the competition for free thus providing equal opportunity to designers worldwide, and second, it is to help us promote the A' Design Award in video format in a budget friendly manner such that we could focus our financial budget on our design museum or other initiatives we take to promote our laureates, as such, for us the video will serve as an advertising which we would be paying for with nomination tickets, and as an advertising, you have all the rights to note that your video is sponsored or indicate that your video is sponsored content, but also as an advertising, we want the video to be positive and marketing the products and showing them in a good positive way.

We will review your video two times. First, immediately after it gets published, we will review it for its content and compliance with our general guidelines. Secondly, after your video is published, within 30 days (or whenever you want us to), we will review your video one more time for both its quality and view count; we will assign you a digital nomination ticket or pro-edition ticket depending on the following criteria at the time we review your video for the second and final time.

You should satisfy all three requirements A, B and C to be eligible for a free nomination ticket; you will get either a pro-edition ticket or a digital edition ticket and not both unless you have many views than you may have multiple tickets as we note here especially if your video reaches an exceptional number of views.

Free Digital Edition Ticket Criteria: A) Video quality is HD or higher. B) Video is min. 30 seconds long. C) Either your video reaches 1.000 views or Your video reaches 100 views but its quality is truly exceptional, very professional, really well done.

Free Pro-Edition Ticket Criteria: A) Video quality is HD or higher. B) Video is min. 30 seconds long. C) Either your video reaches 10.000 views or your video reaches 1.000 views but its quality is truly exceptional, very professional, really well done.

Discounted Digital Edition Ticket Criteria: If you cannot fulfill the criteria for a free digital edition ticket, you do not need to worry, your efforts will be recognized in any case; you will still get something out of your video; we will provide you with 80% discount on digital nomination ticket if your video reaches at least 500 views, or you could get a 50% discount on pro-edition nomination ticket if your video reaches 50 views. If your video does not get enough views, we will provide you with 20% discount on digital edition nomination ticket, if it has at least 20 views.

You should keep the testimonial video available online and accessible publicly for at least two years from the date it gets published and once you publish your video, do please let us know by contacting us. We will check if your video is compliant with our guidelines, and if your video is compliant with our guidelines here, we may promote it on behalf of you, helping you with the views!

How does Testimonial Video help you? Apart from getting nomination tickets or discounts, you are creating awareness for our competition and supporting our cause; our cause, our mission is to create a better world with good design, and most importantly if you have never done a video session, this may very well be a first step towards a new way of promotion and audience outreach for you and your brand.

A' Design Award & Competition was designed keeping the designers first in our minds; the accolade does not bring contractual financial obligations and burdens to award winners thanks to its "no further fees" policy.
