 All candidates can produce a short campaign video if they wish to do so. This video can be uploaded to any online service and then be linked in the Discourse Q&A answer post every candidate needs to post.
-Video is a great format to help give a human face to the election process. It also helps candidates tap into their creative side and connect with Reps on another level that's direct, genuine and a lot of fun. Through the video medium, Reps can get to know the candidates better, understand what they stand for and have a more personal connection with the candidates. There are no specific requirements as to what equipment or software you need to use, as long as the video is good enough quality so that your face is recognizeable and your voice is understandable.

 The video can last up to 2 minutes (120 seconds). If you submit a video that is longer, then the Peers reserve the right to remove it from your post until it fulfills this requirement.

 During the Spring 2020 Council Elections we will experiment with running a full-day chat-based Ask-me-anything. You can find more information on [https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/council-elections-chat-instead-of-video-town-hall/55564/7 Discourse].
-During the Campaign period there are 2 Town Halls being held. Candidates should attend at least one of these. They are around 6 hours apart to cover as many timezones as possible, but we are aware that we can not cover *all* timezones. Therefore questions can be submitted beforehand and the calls will be recorded/streamed on Air Mozilla.
-* The Reps Peers will give a short introduction and explanation for the elections at the beginning of each Town Hall and set the ground for the further parts (max 5 minutes)
-* The rest of the call is open for any Rep to ask questions to all/specific candidates about their goals and motivation
