Talisie's Challenge

Movie Mania

Howdy ya'll!
Ok so congrats, you lived through the first challenge! But now, darling muffins, you are in MY DOMAIN! Oh yeah, fear a lot, feel the fear! Tally's in da house!~

SO whacha'll be doing is the following: I fought my way through the gamesroom, dragged myself away and brought for my sweet lil teams the games with the most potential for EPIC AWESOME plots!! I mean, EVERYBODY loves epic and awesome, so I see no reason for complaints- and if you do, don't. Now, ya'll gonna be making up awesome plots about these games- and let me just point out that self-insertion is a VALID form of art and does NOT mean my character is a MARY SUE OK?!!? ok maybe it may make it very unlikely for it to not be but OMG JUST SHADDAP!!! AIT so, games, plot, movie! Movie? Posteeeeeeeerrrrrr~♥

Assistant: Please get to the point, miss Liddell.

Don't call me that- YEAH ok ok ok fine. You pick one of my awesome games and make a poster for the movie based on it. Simple ait? It can follow the plot of the game, or be a whole new plot regarding the playing of the game, or like, I dunno, whatever you think is awesome. The point is the poster. Which will of course feature the model, and the designer can do the, well, designing thing... all designings. All of them. Yeah.

Well, get to it then!~

OH WAIT NO you guys wanna know the boring details ait? Yeah ok so you gotta get your entry in by the... uuhhhh... twentysomethings on this month, whichever it is, and the criteria are how much I adore your entry and COLORS! *tableflips*
Now, remember darlings, stay drop dead gorgeous and when in doubt, ADD GLITTERS!~

Requirements:
- Poster must be vertically orientated;
- Format is not elimination criteria but 3/4 proportions are preferred.

Deadline: 26th of May; 23:59:59 NST

Main Judging Criteria:
- Composition;
- Ambient.

Q&A

- Can we use other characters in the poster?
Yes, you are allowed, but your model must be the main focus. If using guest-characters that do not belong to you make sure to ask permission and credit them appropriately. All of the entry must be YOUR art though, so no collabing.

- Do we need to think out and post the plot of the movie?
Nah, that's optional, only if you have fun with it.

- Is background required? Props allowed?
Besides the model's presence nothing is necessarily required, as long as the final result looks good and the movie is recognizable. Props are A-OK.

Rules

- OBEY NEO-RULES.
- Be friendly and open-minded~

----------

Boards

- Person who has the first post on page 25, creates the new board.
- Title must be "*star* SHIINE *star*". If you want, you can add something after too.
- First post of the board should include at least the link to this page and a small, small description of the competition. You can write more things though, just be weird and friendly C:

----------

Extension Policy

- You can give in your entry up to 24 hours after the deadline, but for that you must send a neomail to Sora or Chiru saying you need it. Doing so will penalize you in said round's judging AND give you a mark.
- You are allowed to get 2 marks. At the third failure to make the deadline you will be disqualified.
- If you warn beforehand (more than 24 hours before deadline) that you will need the extension (for a good reason, of course) you will still get the mark, but will not be penalized in that round of judging. (If you warn and don't need the extension more than 2 times, we're going to give you a mark anyway. We don't want people abusing this now do we? ^^U)

About SHIINE

SHIINE is an art competition. Creativity, effort and originality are most certainly important, but in the end, it is and will always be an art competition. It's an event for people who strive to improve their art, can appreciate constructive feedback and have a more critical outlook on things. For those feeling insecure about their art and/or don't want feedback yet still want to experience, that is absolutely fine! Critique is OPTIONAL, and as such we beg of you to not ask for it if you can't handle some honesty. ^^U
Finally, we are NOT without flaw. We don't claim to be so. We hope to become less flawed as we gain experience and better ourselves, but SHIINE is still very green a competition. We appreciate any feedback we can get, and suggestions to improve this competition are always welcome. c:

F.A.Q.

-What is this?
It is an art/modeling/design competition.

- Competitions aren't allowed!
They are as long as there are no prizes involved. Which is the case. Sorry.

- Is this another lame copy of NNTM?!
Nope. Though the idea only came because NNTM existed, we'd much rather see ourselves as a lame merge of ANTM and Project Runway, with a lame made-up title.

- How long will challenges take?
About 9 days, including two weekends, each.

- What about the whole competition?
That will depend on the amount of drop-outs. But right now we're counting on doing 9.

- Can I also use my entry on the BC or AG?
Of course, it is still your art, make the most of it.

- Can I still join even though auditions are over?
Nope, try next time. Follow the current one, it's cool. Do the challenges for fun or practice because it makes you cooler. And if you're awesome go show them off at the board so we can feast our eyes upon it. Cuz I say so. Cx
