F.A.Q. - Artist and Dancers

Is there a minimum age to participate?

Yes, at this time we are requiring all participants to be at least 18 years of age at the time of submission. 

Is there a deadline for submissions and what if I miss it?

Yes, the deadline for all submissions for the Orlando performance will be Nov 3rd or until we find enough artist for the auditions.  

Our firm is considering a submission. Will a judge from a competing firm judge our submission?

The judging process consists of several rounds of judging and resembles a sports tournament bracket so we can avoid any potential complications and yet get submissions viewed as many times as possible. All submissions will advance through the judging bracket anonymously.

What genre of music can be submitted?

We welcome all genres of music to be submitted however, this should be a cover tune and it should have energy for the halftime show. Think about pumping up the crowd or mid-tempo. 

What if my submission can fit into more than one category. 

You can submit the same idea into up to three categories of your choice. Also, jurors will have the prerogative to switch a submission to a new category if they think it better aligns in a new category.

Will I be informed if I am selected to move on to the next round?

Yes, if you as an artist are selected to move on to the next round, the participant will receive a phone call and an email confirmation. If the participant does not respond to the phone call or email confirmation within 48 hours, they may be subject to removal from the competition and moving forward

Will there be contracts signed to participate in the competition?

Yes, all participants must sign an agreement to participate in the competition portion of the pilot Road To Halftime. 

If my music is selected for sync licensing will I be notified?

Absolutely, we will contact you to set up how your music will be marketed and shared along with the contract, revenue splits, and all the details.
