Quick announcement: You will need to make a livejournal. You may not ever use it again, and may just ignore it after bigbang, but it's gonna be needed for sign-ups and contact between fanmixer/vidder/artist and the writer. :D
Official info in this video.
~ The goal is to write a 10,000 word HSM fic. Those who complete this challenge on time (August 31) will be rewarded with a fanart/fanmix/fanvid made especially for their fic. 10,000 words is the minimum requirement, but if you want to write more, you're more than welcome and encouraged to.
~Stories can be het, gen, or slash. Crossovers with other fandoms are permitted, but the main focus and/or pairing must be High School Musical. The central pairing of your story must be between HSM characters. Chad/Ryan is awesome, so is Troy/Gabriella or Taylor/Sharpay. It can even have a background pairing from another fandom if you are so inclined. RPF/S is acceptable if the fic is AU. Otherwise, work with fictional characters. What makes HSM so wonderful to write for is that all the characters are, for all intents and purposes, stock characters.
~Co-writing is absolutely allowed, but the collaborative wordcount minimum is still 10,000 words.
~Signups for writers open on May 2nd and close on June 1st at midnight EST. If you decide you're up to the challenge after signups are closed, please email a mod to discuss it.
~ Signups for fanmixers/artists/vidders open on (still being decided) and remain open until mid-August. Writers may sign up to be fanmixers/artists/vidders, but non-writers will be given priority when fic summaries are tentatively claimed by fanmixers/artists/vidders in early September.
~On August 31, the completed fic must be emailed to the mods so that it can be assigned to a fanmixers/artists/vidders. This version of the fic does not have to be the betaed, edited polished, completely final form, but it must have already reached 10,000 words so that we know that we can accurately assign you to the fanmixers/artists/vidders, and so that the fanmixers/artists/vidders more or less has your finished fic to literally draw from. You have about a month from August 31 to have your fic betaed and edited, if it hasn't been done already. All fics *must* be beta-ed and edited. We don't want you to spend all this time on a wonderful plot and have it marred because its riddled with typos and poor grammar. During this month, the fanmixers/artists/vidders have to create a mix/art/video.
~On September 30, all final fics and all fanmixes/art/videos are due, and we will begin posting on October 12.
~No story can be submitted for this challenge that has previously appeared in any form or in any part online prior to the posting date - nothing already in progress (like part 1/?, 2/?, et cetera have already been posted).
~Unlike most traditional Big Bang challenges, we do not have mandatory prompts. You may write any idea you wish (within the parameters), but optional prompts will be posted here (which you are encouraged to add to) for those who prefer more structured challenges or need an idea to work off.
~This isn't a fic exchange. Its a challenge: no pressure about recipients or pinch-hitting. If you're interested in signing up but are worried about not being able to complete the challenge, pulling out at any point before the June 1 deadline is okay, no pressure, no wrath from mods, no going insane on your part if life becomes hectic and you cant finish. Life happens, we all know this. No worries.
Extra info for fanmixers:
~The fanmix you create should be between 12 and 20 songs (the length of a CD). Please do not include more than one song from the movie trilogy and no more than one song by any of the singers in the trilogy. For example, if you include "Celebrate You" by Corbin Bleu, then you cannot include "Get Your Ass On" by Lucus Grabeel, but you can include "We're All in this Together". We want diversity here. We already know that HSM has a soundtrack for each movie; we want new, exciting mixes that fit the theme of the fic.
