This page will expand as more questions arise. If you have a question that is not covered here, please contact us.

VOTER REGISTRATION

• I noticed that to register as a member you have to be endorsed by two other members, how can I find a list of members to see whom I know?
  
  We are not permitted to publish or give away such information. We suggest you ask those people you know within the community. For example, if you take or have taken any courses at Second City or the comedy program at Humber College, it's a good bet any of your instructors are members of the comedy association.
• I registered as a union member to vote before but now I'm listed as Comedy Association; am I in the Comedy Association now for some reason?
  
  Yes. Union association is only used in a voter's first year of voting. For any consecutive years as a voter, they are associated with the Comedy Association so that we do not have to continually send their info to their union for validation.

VOTING

• Does not voting for a category count as abstaining? Or does it invalidate my entire ballot?
  
  It does not invalidate your ballot. You can vote in any one or more categories.

SUBMISSIONS

• How do I make a submission to the Canadian Comedy Awards?
  
  You need to first sign in to your industry voter account.
  
  Once you do, a second navigation menu will appear below the main navigation menu at the top of the page.
  
  Click on "Your Submissions".
  
  From the Your Submissions page, you can add a new submission or update submissions you've already made.
• Am I eligible to make a submission for consideration in the Canadian Comedy Awards?
  
  Only those with industry voter status may make a submission to the Canadian Comedy Awards. Please check the criteria for registering to be an industry voter.
• Can I submit more than one nomination?
  
  Yes. You can submit any number of nominations you wish but each is considered a separate submission with a separate form and fee.

SUBMISSION VIDEOS

• How do you want me to edit my video submission?
  
  Editing is not necessary so long as you have indicated start and end timecodes for a 15-minute jurying clip and a 2-minute voting clip. However, an edited highlight reel is also acceptable.
  
  Do not send in your original copy as it will not be returned to you.
• Do I need to put a slate or titles off the top of my submission videos?
  
  No. You do not. The popup window in which jury members and voters will view your video will contain both the title of your submission and the category to which it has been submitted. The only thing that titles will do for you is eat up your screen time, especially important on the voting video which cannot exceed two minutes.
• Do you still accept submission videos on DVD?
  
  Yes. We have begun the shift to online delivery of materials but we will still accept submission videos on DVD.
