copy of the 
completed application in PDF format.

Lastly, if you are submitting a video from a NON-European country, click here 
to download 
a Pro Forma Invoice - THIS IS A MUST, your video will be held in customs and 
not received

it would be a lot easier, and they'd get more submissions if they allowed us to 
wither link 
to and existing video or upload one.

It looks like  you need to mail a physical piece of media in...

  The „4th International Video Journalism Awards is calling for entries!
 
  The Video Journalism Awards is looking for non-fiction videos from
  single authors, the so called videojournalists (short VJs). A VJ is
  responsible for the whole creative process starting from research and
  shooting as well as covering the whole process of editing and
  sometimes even the publication of the film.
  A small camcorder and a laptop are the tools of the VJ, which is
  comparable to the pen and paper a newspaper journalist uses.
 
  The final deadline for entering films for the 4th International Video
  Journalism Awards is the 15th of October 2008. The awards are produced
  by vjawards.com , the host is ZDF German Television in Mainz.
 
  The internet is converging all kinds of media, which is reflected by
  this year's theme unlimited access. The awards try to cover all
  known fields of video journalism: films from TV-stations and
  publishing companies and productions from an independent background
  are awarded with a total of 12.000 € of prize money going to the

  perspectives are discussed in the supporting programme of the 4th
