JULY 2009
Contest: "What Happens Next?"
Deadline: August 2nd - extended

The Details:

The season five finale...

*Flash to white*

...so what do you think happens next?

We've all been doing mental backflips trying to figure out what happened after Jules cracked open that hydrogen bomb. Did time re-set? Were our losties sent back to before the crash to land in LA safe and sound? Or did nothing happen at all? Was it a complete mistake? What do you think? We want to know! Did Kate get hauled off to prison? Did Claire give Aaron away? Did Sayid and Nadia finally get their happy ending? Or did nothing happen at all? Anything goes! You can focus on one character, a pairing or a whole bunch if you want! We just want to see a possible outcome for what could have happened after the white flash. So AU's are most definitely fine and you can use footage from other shows/movies, etc to help get your story across, as long as it abides by the half Lost footage rule

Most of all; have fun!

The Rules

Specific Contest Rules:
• - Make a video with a possible outcome of what happened after the flash.
• - Running time should be no longer than 5 minutes. We suggest the 3 - 5 minute range.
• -The more creative, the better. Don't be afraid to take risks.

• -All regular submissions rules apply.
• -Only one entry per vidder.
• -Videos already submitted and RELEVANT can be submitted again, but we would rather see something fresh. (Please contact a CM if you wish to enter a previously-submitted video)

• -Keep in mind that however you choose to host your video, it must be available for viewing at least until the end of the contest. If we can not access your video at the time of judgment it will not be considered.
• -Have fun!

Lov It Love It Love It. Sign me in.

But just one thing: The video doesnt need to be based on the reset theory right? Just ANYTHING that happened after the white flash, yeah? Awesome!

Gah, I Was going to do a PB&J video using this sort of idea, however, the white flash was going to come in nearer the end. But I guess that wouldn't really count 'cause it wasn't going to fully concentrate on that :S I'll see what I can do, I really want to make a Charlie/Claire vid for this idea
