Lost Video Island

[pruedens]

well i started a AU vid a week ago with this theme....im a psychic.....hope i will find time to finish it in time!!

[xXAngelicEvilXx]

Man, dunno about this. I've never attempted an AU, but this contest is really calling out to me. I'll give it a go and see how it goes

[ciaimpala]

I just got randomly insanely inspired, but I have no idea if I can actually pull off my crazy idea or not lol. I'm definitely gonna try!

[ciaimpala]

Quick question: how AU can we go? Can we rewrite a little bit of what happened before the bomb dropped? (ie a character was harboring a secret love for another character?)

I know that anything after the bomb dropped is totally fair game in regards to how crazy and out there of a theory you want to put together! However, we'll confer about your question of rewriting what happened before and get back to you as soon as possible!

[ciaimpala]

Thanks Ais...I'm gonna PM you so you know exactly what it is I'm making...if its too out there no worries I'll make it anyway but not enter it

[FaradayLinus]

oo cool. i want to enter, i just hope i can pull it off. who knows though, since I haven't even finished a video the first yet though haha but yea, i have to try this, the theme is so epic.

I PMed Becca but I'll go ahead and repeat the answer here as well in case anybody else has the same question!

Because the contest is specifically for what happens next after the bomb is dropped, then we're asking for vids that follow exactly what happened in the show up until that point. However, in guessing what you think could happen in season 6, you're free to make up anything you'd like, as wild and out there as you want to go or as "real" as you want to try to make it! As long as it's taking place after the finale, you're free to either try to stick to what you think canon will be or to make it as AU as you want.

Does the submission have to be a standard music video?

What sort of format were you thinking of? A trailer? All dialogue without any music? (Just so we can get an idea of what you're asking. )

Well, I'm not completely sure but maybe a mini episode, with musical score at most, but not necessairily.

I think I might enter this month. If I am trying to tell a story, especially since its AU, will my video be hurt if there is not alot of beat use? I think I will try harder on the manips.

I think I have seen a few videos that focuseed more on the story it was telling rather than the effects. I was just wondering if that was ok.

[littleton_pace]

Yeah; that's fine alyssa! with a comp like this we do want you to focus more on the story so you don't need to have lots of beat use yayfor entering!

Yep, that's perfect! We're looking for something with a lot of story to it and something like a mini ep would definitely fit the bill!
