Each judge will be given a scoring form from 1 to 100 to identify the percentage that they will give to the video, which will be worth 10% of the video’s score.

There will also be another way of evaluation - the amount of Likes and views that the video has. Each like is equivalent to 1%, therefore if the video gains over 60 likes, its value would always be 60%. If the video gets more than 250 views, a 15% will be added.
