So How Does The iTalent Contest Work?
A competition Is Divided In Three Phases
1. Entry Phase (Audition)
- In this phase everybody who wants to enter the contest, enters their art/performance in the comments section of the iTalent announcement post
- Everybody has 5 DAYS to enter the Audition from the day that iTalent announced the competition started
(everybody can enter 3 times, but only with 1 entry per category)
2. Qualifying Phase (Voting For Entries)
After everyone entered the contest the voting starts, and lasts for 5 days,
on the last day iTalent Team will count the votes and announce the artists/performers that have qualified to compete for the reward.
(if you don't vote for others, you cannot pass to the final phase, even if you get enough votes to do so)
3. Final Phase (Voting For Qualified Entries)
In this phase all of the contestants vote for the best art/performance that qualified in the comments section of the "Finalists Announcement Post"
(if you haven't made it to the finals you still have to vote, if you don't you will not be eligible for the next contest)
Whilst everybody votes for the winner, finalists can provide another art/performance and not the same they auditioned with to gain extra 10% of the overall points
If a finalists entered more categories than one, they must decide in which category they want to compete for the finals
Voting is always done by the contestants themselves, never by iTalent Team or non-contestants
I've designed a voting system that will discourage people to beg for points, or team up between each other. Voting is done in the comments section of the current iTalent post, you must vote for 6 performers by providing them points and insights, you must find six performers that deserved (by your opinion) something from below:
Point/Insight Awards:
(5 Points) (3 Points) (1 Point) (Creativity) (Originality) (Technicality)
And decide who deserves what, you cannot give the same award twice or give two awards to the same performer, every award goes to only one performer
THE EXAMPLE BELOW SHOWS YOU HOW THE VOTING SHOULD BE DONE:
(attention all of the accounts in the example are purely symbolic)
As you can see in the example above you cannot give points to whom you already gave insights and vice versa. This is because insights serve as a counteract to the points
(the reason for this rule is to engage a voting balance, you can support your true favorite performers with the most points, but insights will have to come from elsewhere to confirm a truly unanimous public opinion)
POINTS
Points are simply added up by the iTalent Team on the last day of the Audition (Voting) or Final (Voting) phase of the contest
- To ensure absolute fairness, the votes are recorded by the screenshot software (video) and posted in the winner announcement post, this is done just to make sure if somebody goes and tries to change/edit their comment/vote in the last minute for some reason to try to disapprove of the votes counted by the iTalent Team.
INSIGHTS
There are three insights Creativity - Originality - Technicality
Each insight gives the contestant that had it most attributed to him an additional 20% of the whole points pool (so not from the reward pool but an additional 20% that is measured by the full amout of points in the contest)
So for example, let's say that there is 50 people voting in the contest, that would amount to 400 points in total, 20% of that is 80 points, this means that whoever gets most insight votes gets an additional 80 points in that case
So in actuality the contest that has 50 people voting has 400 points + 3 x 80 from insights, amounting to 640 points in total.

https://steemit.com/italent/@branhmusic/steemit-italent-entry-my-original-song-introverted
Well That Was freakin Ace Straight Up :)
I was sitting there listening to this tune as an alto saxophonist and vocalist and jamming along loving the vibe brilliant series talent you have there Bro those chords were awesome nice smooth and i am not a guitarist I can play a little but I've jammed with a lot and I liked your style. What I love about writing music and why this tune will probably inspire me to take up writing again is because music carries on from where words can't go any further, something I heard some time ago but resonated so keep it up and that song massive potential :)
Cheers man and hope you start writing again.
Glad to have you on board 😉 @branhmusic you've been one of my favorites for awhile on the OpenMic, dude your vocals are top notch, keep on making this amazing originals

Truly amazing vocals man, for real

Hi there everyone! Here is my entry to the iTalent Contest, in two categories: Visual Arts (poetry/songwriting) and Auditory Arts (singing/rapping).
https://steemit.com/italent/@bennettitalia/italent-contest-poetry-songwriting-and-singing-rapping-entry
Wow @bennettitalia the song is incredible, I really like your style, I already told you once remember, I'll tell you what I really liked about the track, this awesome bucket drum samples, this awesome back vocals and how beautifully syncopated they are (just right), that flanger floating around and that crunchy guitar solo, the track also reminded me on a great band I once knew and forgot, they are called Eels
Thank you for participating in the iTalent Contest

Hello everyone, here is my entry for VISUAL ARTS:
https://steemit.com/italent/@zen-art/italent-or-episode-1-or-auditions-or-visual-arts-or-antlers-moon-painting
@zen-art the way you presented your art piece is exactly what iTalent is about, I think everybody who has seen your video will agree that it gave them more insight to your painting, and the technique and the idea behind it, something that a mere JPEG/PNG picture in the post could never come close to.
I can see you often gaze at the moon @zen-art, because the way you drew that aura around it, really shows that radiant blur when one completely enters the meditative state while staring at it, love the color choices you made, excellent contrast and a phenomenal concept behind it, and don't get me started on the name, amazing ✌

thank you very much for your appreciation. I have considered recording the process, but at this moment it would take me a long time to make the drawing and I will have to edit and upload the video, and I am finishing my thesis, as soon as I finish and I graduate I will be able to share my work in another way, greetings.
