New Stage International Music Festival and Competition
Online Competition
New Stage Video Submission Guidelines
General Information
-
Videos must clearly show the student and provide a clear view of the instrument and their hands. If the instrument includes foot pedals, then these must be visible as well.
-
You may use any recording device as you wish. Smartphones generally have better cameras than tablets or laptops.
-
Your performance will be graded based on your playing ability, not the quality of the video. That being said, having clear video and audio will help your performance shine through.
-
Videos must be whole, uninterrupted takes with no distractions or background noise. You may of course record as many takes as you like and send the best one.
-
Post-Production (Editing, etc.) of the video or audio is forbidden.
Submitting your Videos

We accept video links from all major video sharing sites.

Please edit the filenames of the videos so that they contain the student’s name, title of the song, and composer.​

When uploading your videos to YouTube, be sure to select “Unlisted” under the “Visibility” settings.

Please use the title and description fields to include the contestant’s name, category, title, composer, and length of the piece.​
