Yep, I think trailers should be fine (will check back with the others though).

I'll try to take part, too. I already have an idea (I wanna try "A Christmas Carol" aka Scrooge) and a song, too, I just hope I'll find enough Lost clips that'll work for this idea.

Anyone doing Home Alone?


SQUEEE! A Christmas Carol would of been my second choice next to The Grinch. I love that story soo much! I cannot wait to see what you come up with!

No problem, here's the link.

It's not that great editing-wise (but then again, I made it a year ago, so...), but I really enjoyed making it because it was so different from my other Lost vis.

Cool I was thinking if i do horror, would proabably be Black Xmas trailer which does have a christmas theme but would you need to see the trailer to see if it fits in?


Yeah, it would be cool if you could send us a link to the trailer. We'd have a look then.

I started a vid to that the other day
great minds think alike eh? It's not going that well though, I keep remembering that it's only 28 days to christmas! and dancing to the music rather than vidding to it.
hmmm might scratch Santa Clause Is Coming to Town, and go for 'merry christmas everyone'

Charlie, your Black Christmas idea is fine with us. I'm looking forward to your Lost version of the trailer, hehe.

Do we have to retell an old Christmas story or can it be a new one we made up? I have an idea in mind, but I have to give it more of a plot, I think.

Go back to the first page if you have anymore concerns/questions about the rules. It says there that it can be from your own mind, it doesn't have to be an actual Christmas story.

Tricky one, Kat. Both songs are great, but I have a slight tendency towards Santa Claus (big surprise, huh? ). I think it would be more fun to make than the other song and it's more of a challenge. I also find "All I want..." quite overused. You'll find a Christmas vid to that song in each and every fandom, I'm pretty sure of that. (Well, but then again "overused" was the word I used for "The Scientist" and Trey proved that I was sooo wrong because his version of that song just swept me off my feet )

You should probably go by which song you feel more positive about / which song you have more ideas for.

Well, I've seen plenty of vids at YT to that song. I don't remember having seen one with "All I want..." here at the LVI though. (You could check that through the artist/song search on the main site). Either way is fine with us, Kat, cause none of use judges a vid by the song that's been used. It's more important how good and creative your use of the lyrics is.

I'm afraid I won't be able to do the Christmas Carol vid. There are yet two very busy weeks at university to come before the Christmas holidays start and I'm afraid I just won't have much time to work on the contest vid.

So, if anyone wants to do "A Christmas Carol", please feel free to give it a go
