SEPTEMBER 2008
Contest: Strange World
Deadline: October 6th -- extended!!
The Details
Strange World is a soulful tune by Sarah McLachlan, and that's what September's contest is all about. Sarah's music is full of emotion unlike any other artist. This month we'd like you to use one of her songs to create the same effect for a Character Study. Simply choose ANY past or present character (living or dead) from the show and pair them with one of Sarah's songs. Make us laugh! Make us cry! Make us angry! Make us feel the emotion of your video!
We will be using a song AND character claiming system. 1 song per vidder and 2 vidder's MAX to a song. 3 vidder's MAX to a character. You MUST claim both the character and the song in this thread.
Here is a list of Sarah's songs to help you make your choice.
Definition of a Character Study- taken from Google.
* concentrates on a single character and his or her development through a story arc, or his or her personal struggles.
* An in depth story of a certain character explaining his/her history or point of view.
