I agree with Sawyer's answers for all of the above!
6- Yes! Just don't expect great "Gameplay" scores. Sounds like a good way to focus on story/graphics!
7. Wow! This is really pushing the limits of a "game" jam. I'd say as long as there is something controllable, it can count as a game, though a video file you hit "new game" to watch is probably the absolute bare minimum possible.
It can be kind of ambiguous what the "player" is in these, but I can stress that the location has to be a physical location, so it can't be a dream or a memory. However, if the "player" in the form of the 3rd person viewer of events goes back in time to an ascent, but none of the protagonists or antagonists are there or even existed, that could still count as fulfilling the requirement.
