aaaaaah amazing! You should definitely get to registering for the con then :P Where are you coming from?
I just had a look at the behind-the-scenes bit of the website (which I can do now I'm on the concom! aaaaah) and I love your first idea! Very interested to see what your second idea is.
You can totally already ask people for input/recs if you think that will make the decision-making easier! I wouldn't go to the effort of asking vidders for permission yet though - wait until you have a show put together, and then ask them. In my experience (and I've done a LOT of vidshows now) everyone will say yes :)
You can't submit any actual vids to the Vidukon site yet - what will happen is that at the end of the month, when the 'submissions' period closes, I will have a look at what show and panel ideas have been submitted, and hopefully we will have enough for me to cobble a programme together (I mean, hopefully we will have MORE than that, but who knows) and then I will approve the shows we want in the con. And then you will get an email to say your show has been approved! And then you can start putting it together in earnest, and will eventually have to input a load of metadata into the website, which is all v easy. And upload the vids to the site, which is also v easy
The only time things might get complicated is in the (reasonably unlikely) event that two vidshows are submitted with the same vid, in which case I will ask the VJs to try and work out a compromise and change one of their vids.
I hope that's useful! Feel free to ask anything else! .
