02. Each film entry must have a team captain. The captains are responsible for corresponding with TCR administrators. They are also the recipient of prizes. Team captains must be at least 18 years old.
03. All music must be owned by the team captain. This can be original music or music that you have obtained the appropriate rights for. Artificial Intelligence (AI) may not be used as the overall medium for the film. It may, however, be used as an asset (for music or background element purposes only) to the filmmaking process as long as all appropriate rights have been obtained. AI cannot be used for writing the script. For questions on this, please e-mail us.
04. All proper talent release forms and agreements must be filled out before submitting. The Comedy Roll is not responsible for improper document keeping or not following SAG guidelines.
