Round 5: Reading Rainbow

Post by Kireblue » Sun Jul 17, 2016 8:30 pm

“One of the best inventions ever was the book. A book lets you zoom through time and space, but don't bother packing; you can stay in one place. When you read a good book, you bring the book to life. But you don't have to take my word for it.” - Levar Burton, host of Reading Rainbow

Round Challenge
For the final preliminary round, you will be creating an AMV inspired by a form of literature. This can be a novel, folklore, fable, fairytale, poem or whatever form of literature that you like. You may tell the story as it was originally told, or put your own creative spin on it. But for the purpose of this competition; comic books, manga, and other forms of anime derivative works are not permitted to be selected as the referenced literature.

_______________________________

Round 5 Deadline:
Sunday, July 24th @ 11:59PM EST

_______________________________

Submitting Your Video:
When finished, please upload your video to a reputable file sharing service and send the download link to me via a private message on animemusicvideos.org. The body of your message should also include the title of your video, and a link to the Wikipedia page that lists your literature. Google Drive and Dropbox are the preferred methods of uploading your video, but please ensure that the URL you send is a “shared” or “public” link. Sendspace is not recommended due to a daily download limit that it imposes. Note: Youtube or ”streaming only” links will not be accepted. You do not have to wait until the final day to submit your video. You are also free to publicly share and upload your videos before the deadline. Just be aware that doing so may help your opponents. If you finish early and feel that your video does not need anymore tweaking, you may submit it at any time before Sunday, July 24th @ 11:59PM EST. At the end of each round, all the submitted videos will be made available to the public to stream on google drive. If you would like the download option to be disabled on your video and to only allow it to be streamed, please add this request to the body of your submission message. By default, all videos will be made available for download unless the editor specifically requests that it doesn't. Editors also have the option to request that one of their videos be completely unavailable to the public, and only the judges will be able to view it. This option is only available during the preliminary rounds, can only be used once, and can not be changed to a different video (even if the editor chooses to remove the restriction on the previous one).

Ooh interesting! I assume it's not sufficient to just use an anime adaptation of a novel, but would it be ok to use an anime that's already loosely based on a piece of literature?

If the anime is already based on literature, then it is considered a derivative work. And so using it will not count as satisfying the theme.

I still haven't decided what to do lol...would making a trailer AMV for a movie that was based on a book fit the theme? The anime wouldn't be based on the book but the audio would. (sorry for all these questions, btw)

You kinda have to decide that one on your own. Unless there are specific rules prohibitong something, you're allowed to do it. Its up to each individual judge to decide if it fits the theme or not.
