Prepare for the worst, but hope for the very best.<\/p>\n<p>Those responsible for the winning video will get Above the Law prizes and the pleasure of knowing they\u2019re the envy of their law school peers. As always, there will be complete and total exoneration for the losers. There\u2019s always next year.<\/p>\n<p>Before you start sending us your videos, we\u2019ve got some rules.

Use editing tools, people.<\/li>\n<li>Please submit\u00a0<strong>no more than two entries per school<\/strong>\u00a0(one per school is even better). Try to collaborate with your fellow students and submit no more than two entries. If the leadership of Law Revue can come up with \u201cofficial\u201d submissions, that would be ideal.<\/li>\n<li>ATL readers will then vote to choose the funniest of the finalists.

A shaky clip shot on a handheld from a third-floor balcony is probably not going to make the cut.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t make us hate you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Send those videos in. Best of luck \u2014 the competition will be even fiercer than usual, so you\u2019re going to need it!!!
