"Gidol is a new online competition for the many talented (and not so talented) people out there who have been waiting for their moment of fame. The competition places publicly submitted videos from Google Video in a head-to-head knockout tournament of 4 heats and 2 semi finals leading up to the grand final when a winner is announced.
Popularity is judged by the public who vote for their favourite video - and you can vote once a day for the Gidol you want to win. Votes are tallied at the end of the competition and the video with the highest number of votes will be named the winner. Winners not only receive prizes for their efforts, but are also inducted into the Gidol Hall of Fame.
The competitions are based on two categories: Webcam and Music Video.
The Webcam competition includes videos which are filmed in a single shot/take in front of a video camera. The Music Video competition in contrast includes performances that contain higher production techniques like multiple shots & locations, lighting and professional editing..."
