The Proposal Submission Deadline is a target date only, and INFOMEDIJI reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to continue accepting and reviewing Proposals after that date, including on a rolling basis, for so long as places remain available in the relevant track. Selected Creators will receive confirmation by email and must enter into a Content Licensing Agreement before commencing production or receiving any Funding. Up to ten (10) Creators will be selected for each of Track 1 (Vlog) and Track 2 (Open Track), awarded in order of review approval until all available places for that track have been filled. INFOMEDIJI does not guarantee that all available places will be filled, and Proposals will only be approved if they meet the review criteria set out in Clause 19.2.

18.2 By submitting a Proposal or otherwise participating in the Campaign, you hereby warrant that all information submitted by you is true, current and complete. INFOMEDIJI reserves the right to verify the eligibility of all Creators.

18.3 INFOMEDIJI reserves the right to disqualify any Creator, or to withdraw or withhold Funding, if it has reasonable grounds to believe the Creator has breached any of the Conditons, or has made any false, inaccurate or misleading statement or representation to INFOMEDIJI and/or PICO in connection with the Campaign, on which INFOMEDIJI and/or PICO has relied.

18.4 The Creator understands and agrees that there are eligibility, technical and process requirements applicable to participation in the Campaign. Failure to comply may lead to a Proposal being rejected, or a Creator being disqualified, subject to these additional conditions.

18.4.1 Creator Eligibility. The following conditions relate to any Creator who wishes to submit a Proposal:

18.4.1.1 Applicants must own professional immersive content capture equipment, or demonstrate the ability to produce immersive content using CG tools or game engines (e.g. Unreal Engine, Unity).

18.4.1.2 All submitted VR Content must be original. Creators must own or control all necessary Intellectual Property Rights in the VR Content and have the authority to grant INFOMEDIJI and PICO the licence described in Clause 20 below.

18.4.1.3 To receive Funding, the Creator must be incorporated (e.g. as a company or sole proprietorship) or otherwise able to engage in business with INFOMEDIJI, including by issuing a valid invoice. A natural person who is not able to invoice or otherwise contract with INFOMEDIJI on a business basis is not eligible to receive Funding, notwithstanding any other provision of these Conditions.

18.4.2 Content Requirements. The following additional conditions relate to the VR Content itself:

18.4.2.1 The VR Content must align with one of the two tracks described in Schedule 2 (Track 1: Vlog, or Track 2: Open Track), and must correspond to the theme of the Campaign. INFOMEDIJI reserves the right to disqualify any VR Content that does not reasonably correspond to a track, at its sole discretion.

18.4.2.2 Resolution and format. The VR Content must be a minimum resolution of 8K and a minimum of 30 FPS, shot with professional VR cameras or produced using high-quality CGI/game engines. The VR Content must be submitted in MP4 or MOV format, and must be in VR180 3D, VR360 2D, or VR360 3D. Stereoscopic (3D) VR is highly encouraged.

18.4.2.3 Length. The VR Content must be a minimum of three (3) minutes in length, with a clear creative direction, engaging pacing, and a cohesive viewing experience, and not merely a collection of clips.

18.4.3 Submission Process. Proposals and VR Content shall be submitted in accordance with the following three-stage process:

18.4.3.1 Step 1 – Proposal. The Creator submits a concept and production plan to [email protected] (cc: [email protected]) by the Proposal Submission Deadline set out in Schedule 2, provided that INFOMEDIJI reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to continue accepting and reviewing Proposals after the Proposal Submission Deadline (including on a rolling basis) until all available places referred to in Clause 18.1 have been filled. Selected Creators will receive confirmation and a Content Licensing Agreement.

18.4.3.2 Step 2 – First Cut. The Selected Creator uploads a first cut of the VR Content to Google Drive, using the link or folder provided by INFOMEDIJI, by the First Cut Deadline set out in Schedule 2, which INFOMEDIJI may extend at its sole discretion (including where the Proposal Submission Deadline has been extended in accordance with Clause 18.1), and will receive feedback from the DeoVR Content Team and PICO on storytelling, editing and VR presentation.

18.4.3.3 Step 3 – Final Delivery. The Selected Creator uploads the final version of the VR Content to Google Drive, in accordance with instructions provided by INFOMEDIJI, by the Final Delivery Deadline set out in Schedule 2, which INFOMEDIJI may extend at its sole discretion (including where the Proposal Submission Deadline and/or First Cut Deadline have been extended in accordance with Clauses 18.1 and 18.4.3.2). The final VR Content will undergo technical and content review before publishing. Where the final VR Content does not pass such review, INFOMEDIJI may, at its sole discretion (having taken into account any input from the DeoVR Content Team and PICO), permit the Creator a reasonable opportunity to revise and resubmit the VR Content, or reject the Proposal entirely with no Funding payable, and INFOMEDIJI reserves the right to disqualify any VR Content that fails such review, at its sole discretion.

18.4.3.4 If a Selected Creator fails to meet the Proposal Submission Deadline, First Cut Deadline or the Final Delivery Deadline set out in Schedule 2, INFOMEDIJI may, at its sole discretion, either grant a reasonable extension of the relevant deadline or treat the delay as grounds to disqualify the Creator and withhold or forfeit any Funding, without any obligation to do either.

18.4.3.5 VR Content may also be subject to additional territory-specific content or compliance requirements notified to the Creator by INFOMEDIJI (based on requirements provided by PICO) from time to time, including in relation to Mainland China, and compliance with any such requirements shall be a condition of publication and of receiving Funding.

18.4.3.6 For clarity, the key dates for the Campaign are set out in Schedule 2. INFOMEDIJI reserves the right to update the Campaign timeline, funding structure, or other Campaign details where reasonably necessary. Material changes will be communicated to Creators in advance whenever practicable.

19.1 Funding is awarded based on editorial and quality review of the Proposal and, subsequently, the final VR Content, carried out by PICO and the DeoVR Content Team. Funding is not guaranteed for every Proposal, and Funding amounts (up to the maximum set out in Schedule 1) will be determined following such review and confirmed to Selected Creators by email.

19.2 Every Proposal and final VR Content shall be assessed holistically by PICO and the DeoVR Content Team against the following criteria: Visual Quality (including resolution, image quality, colour accuracy, stitching quality, image stability and overall production quality); Storytelling & Production (including clarity of concept, narrative structure, pacing and editing); Immersive Experience (including viewer comfort, spatial presence, camera movement and motion sickness); Creative Merit (including originality, creativity, unique perspective, and cultural, educational, artistic or entertainment value and audience appeal); and Compliance (including compliance with applicable laws and with the DeoVR Terms and PICO Community Guidelines, and the absence of illegal, infringing, misleading, violent or otherwise prohibited content). Review shall be conducted at the sole discretion of INFOMEDIJI and PICO, and all decisions regarding the application of these criteria and the award of Funding shall be final and binding.

19.3 Funding will be paid in a single instalment after the approved VR Content has been completed, delivered, reviewed by PICO and the DeoVR Content Team, and formally accepted by INFOMEDIJI. In exceptional circumstances, INFOMEDIJI may approve milestone-based or advance payments for a Proposal that requires advance production funding.

19.4 Payment of any Funding is conditional upon (a) the Selected Creator meeting the eligibility requirements set out in Clause 18.4.1.3, and receipt of (b) a signed Content Licensing Agreement, (c) a valid invoice, and (d) any applicable tax documentation, from the Selected Creator.

19.5 Funding is non-transferable and no alternative will be provided, except as expressly approved by INFOMEDIJI. Where, for reasons beyond INFOMEDIJI’s reasonable control, including but not limited to legal, regulatory, financial, banking, payment service provider, sanctions, or compliance restrictions, or the non-receipt, delay, reduction or withholding of funding from PICO or any other sponsor of the Campaign, INFOMEDIJI is unable to pay any Funding as described, INFOMEDIJI may delay or adjust the Funding in accordance with this Clause or, where such a solution is not reasonably practicable or would impose a disproportionate burden on INFOMEDIJI, forfeit the Funding entirely. In such circumstances, the affected Creator shall have no entitlement to any alternative compensation or claim against INFOMEDIJI.

19.6 All taxes, bank fees, transfer fees and any other charges associated with the receipt of Funding shall be the sole responsibility of the Creator.

19.7 INFOMEDIJI reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel or reduce the scope of the Campaign if an insufficient number of qualifying Proposals are received during the Submission Process, or if the Proposals and/or VR Content received do not meet the quality or other standards set out in Clause 19.2. In the event of such cancellation, no Funding shall be awarded in respect of Proposals not already approved, and Creators shall have no entitlement to, or claim against, INFOMEDIJI or PICO arising from or in connection with such cancellation.

19.8 To remain eligible for Funding and any DeoVR Monetization Program opportunities, approved VR Content must remain available on both PICO TV and the Website, in accordance with the licence granted under Clause 20.2.

20.1 All Intellectual Property Rights in the VR Content shall be, and remain, owned by the Creator.

20.2 The Creator hereby grants to INFOMEDIJI and PICO a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable licence to use, reproduce, modify (where necessary), display, publish and otherwise distribute the approved VR Content on the Website and on PICO TV, for long-term availability on both platforms. The Creator acknowledges and agrees that PICO is entitled to directly enforce, and to receive the benefit of, the licence granted to PICO under this Clause 20.2, notwithstanding that PICO is not a party to these Conditions or to the Content Licensing Agreement.

20.3 The Creator further grants to INFOMEDIJI and PICO a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, sublicensable licence to use, reproduce and display the VR Content and related materials for promotional purposes relating to the Campaign, including on INFOMEDIJI’s social media channels and other promotional platforms of its choosing. INFOMEDIJI shall be the sole arbiter of such promotional use.

20.4 Nothing in this Clause 20 is exclusive. The Creator may continue publishing, licensing and monetising the same VR Content on other platforms.

20.5 Any revenue earned by the Creator through the DeoVR Monetization Program in respect of the VR Content belongs to the Creator, in accordance with the DeoVR Terms.

20.6 The Creator’s submissions must be original, created solely by the Creator, and must comply with the DeoVR Terms, PICO Community Guidelines, and all applicable laws and regulations. The Creator’s submissions must not contain any third-party Intellectual Property Rights unless the Creator can provide an unrestricted licence to use such Intellectual Property Rights for the purposes of the Campaign, and such right may be sublicensed to INFOMEDIJI and PICO in accordance with Clause 20.2. It is the responsibility of the Creator to ensure that any such transfer or sublicensing is completed prior to receipt of any Funding.

20.7 Submissions must be free of any dongle, clock, timer, counter, hardware key, copy protection feature, replication device, “virus” or “worm” as those terms are commonly used in the computer industry, or other software code that may lock, disable or erase any of the Intellectual Property Rights, or any other software, programs or data contained within the submission.

20.8 If any material is found not to be owned or controlled by the Creator, and no evidence of the right to use and licence the Intellectual Property Rights has been provided, the Proposal or VR Content will be disqualified.

20.9 As a condition of receiving Funding, Selected Creators must agree to all of the conditions outlined in this Section 20.

21.1 Where applicable, INFOMEDIJI’s processing of payments takes place Monday to Friday, excluding weekends and public holidays.

21.2 Funding will be paid by bank transfer to the account details provided by the Creator. INFOMEDIJI shall not be held responsible if those bank details are incorrect or incomplete.

21.3 Once Funding has been transferred to the Creator’s designated account, all risk in respect of those funds passes to the Creator.

21.4 Any dates communicated to a Creator regarding the timing of Funding payment (whether in the Content Licensing Agreement or otherwise) are approximate only and not an essential term of these Conditions. INFOMEDIJI shall have no liability in respect of any delay in payment of Funding.

21.5 The Creator is responsible for providing all documentation required by INFOMEDIJI to process payment in accordance with Clause 19.4, prior to any Funding being paid.

21.6 Third-party terms and conditions may apply to parts of the payment process where applicable (including banking and payment service provider terms).

21.7 INFOMEDIJI shall not be responsible for any legal, regulatory, banking, payment, or export restrictions imposed by any country or authority that may affect the payment or receipt of Funding. Any such issue shall be treated as a Force Majeure Event under these Conditions.

21.8 INFOMEDIJI may, at any time, require the Creator to provide additional identification, proof of age, tax, banking or other compliance documentation reasonably necessary to process any Funding or to comply with applicable law, including anti-money laundering, sanctions and export control requirements, and may delay or withhold Funding until such documentation is provided.

22.1 The Creator shall indemnify INFOMEDIJI and PICO, and keep each of them indemnified, against any liability to any third party arising out of or connected with the Creator’s use of any Funding or participation in the Campaign.

22.2 The Creator hereby indemnifies and holds harmless INFOMEDIJI and PICO against all claims, demands, losses, damages, costs or expenses howsoever arising and incurred by either of them in connection with these Conditions as a result of a breach by the Creator of any provision of these Conditions, any applicable law or regulation, or any third-party rights.

22.3 The Creator acknowledges and agrees that PICO is entitled to directly enforce, and to receive the benefit of, the indemnities given to PICO under this Section 22, notwithstanding that PICO is not a party to these Conditions or to the Content Licensing Agreement.
