August 2011
Contest: "We're All In This Together"
Deadline: September 4th - extended!

The Details

So LVI is now well and truly multi-fandom, the more fandoms the merrier! And that's what this month's contest is about. We don't just want to see a video for just one other fandom, we want to see a multi-fandom video from you! All the shows you love in one fantastic video showing us there awesome moments, the ones that make you love them.

But we don't want to just see random moments, we're looking for a theme to tie your fandoms together. So how about focusing on the funniest moments? Or the best fight scenes? A montage of your favourite characters and couples? Best death scenes? Or even an actor tribute vid? The sky's the limit on whatever you want your theme to be!

All fandoms (movie and TV) are welcome, including Lost of course, and we ask for a minimum of THREE different shows for it to be considered a multi-fandom video for this contest.

Have fun!! <3

The Rules

Specific Contest Rules:
• - Make a multi-fandom vid that ties the fandoms together, movies/tv shows of your choice.
• - Minimum of THREE fandoms to be considered multi-fandom.
• - No AUs, OCs (Original Characters).
• - 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.
• - When entering your video on the Submit page, you MUST enter "August 2011 contest submission" exactly in your vid's description.

General Contest Rules:

• - Contest submissions should be entered through the Submit page
• - All regular submissions Rules apply.
• - 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)
• - Only one entry per vidder
• - Please do not use Rapidshare or Yousendit as your only hosting place.
• - If you're using Youtube as your primary link, please also provide us with an alternative link. Far too often, YT is either disabled or muted by the time the contest is ready to be judged. Mediafire, zshare and Megaupload are just a few of the sites out there that can be used as reliable backup links.
• - Keep in mind that however you choose to host your video, it must be available to be watched at least until after the deadline has passed. If we can not access your video at the time of judgment it will not be considered.
• - Have fun!

Love the idea for this contest!

I have a quick question. I was just thinking about making a tribute video to the shows created by Joss Whedon (Buffy, Angel, Firefly, and Dollhouse), and I was wondering if that's a strong enough "theme" or if I should have a narrower focus?

Thanks!

can I be cheeky and ask for a bit of an extension? I just don't know whether I'll be done in time or not.

Just a couple of days should do, but I'll let you know if I can get it up sooner.
