AI Tool and Model Rules
Organizer frames the challenge as “football + AI” and seeks AIGC-enabled expression, but the still-open animation direction also accepts traditional 2D, motion graphics, frame-by-frame and animated-illustration production. Generative AI use is encouraged, not mandatory. The poster, illustration and micro-video deadlines have already passed.
