MARCH/APRIL 2007
Contest: Everything Changes
Deadline: April 30


The Details

LVI is changing and so are the Lost characters we have grown to love over the last three years. Because of all the hardship they suffered, their journey on the island has changed who they are, for the better or worse. One of the biggest themes of Lost is the concept of Tabula Rasa - clean state. It means everyone has a chance to start over, to be someone different. A drug lord can become a priest, a paraplegic can walk, an unfaithful woman can reconnect with her husband, etc.

For this contest, we ask you to choose one character and show how much the island has changed who they are. Show through your vidding skills what the character was like before the crash and what kind of person he/she has become after their experiences on the island. Try to link specific events to character behavior. We’re not looking for a simple comparison pre and post plane crash - we ask you to link events and behavior. What made the character change? Show us!

As John Locke said, everyone on the island has a chance to start over. Prove it.

The Rules
Specific Contest Rules:

* -Videos must show how the island events has changed one character
* -The more creative, the better. Don't be afraid to take risks.
* -Running time should be no longer than 5 minutes. We suggest the 3 - 5 minute range.
* -When entering your video on the Submit page, you MUST enter "March 2007 contest submission" exactly for your vid's Description.

General Contest Rules:

* -Contest submissions should be entered through the Submit page
* -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)
* -Please do not use Megaupload, Rapidshare or Yousendit to host your files.
* -Keep in mind that however you choose to host your video, it must be available for download at least until the end of the month. If we can not access your video at the time of judgment it will not be considered.
* -Have fun!

You can always see if something new comes to you, then if it doesn't and the deadline's coming up, you can enter "Ballad."

I have another question...

does that change have to have really happened?
Cuz I was thinking of doing a video about how Jack changes and becomes an other, and I mean that could very well happen still, but if it doesn't would I still be able to do it. Or does the change have to be a real character change, something that they really went through??

I would say okay but it has to be reasonable and true to the character like I would say don't go creating wholy different storylines for that character. Jack becoming an other sounds reasonable enough to me though and plausible to the character and how his story is going. No crack shipping or wacky plot twists please!

(thanks paul! )

Started on my idea and considering we have a while to complete this I should be able to get it done

I have to say it was very hard at first to choose a song to fit this but I just thought what is relevant to the character at the moment.
