Use when revising an ACM MM (ACM Multimedia) paper for house style — putting the cross-modal contribution on the first page, framing media (figures, video, audio) as evidence rather than decoration, making the fusion the visible claim, and compressing the argument into a 6-8 page ACM sigconf body with references-only overflow.

# ACM MM Writing Style

Use this to revise an ACM Multimedia draft for the venue's expectations. The reader is a
busy reviewer scanning across sixteen thematic areas; the paper must announce *what is
multimedia about it* before the model diagram.

## The ACM MM first-page arc

Lead the abstract and first paragraph with: **problem → why one modality is insufficient →
the cross-modal method or system → media-grounded evidence → why it matters for
multimedia**. The multimedia contribution belongs on page one; a paper that opens with a
single-modality benchmark reads as a CVPR or ACL paper that wandered in.

- State the **fusion or systems mechanism** as the contribution, not a backbone swap.
