Deadline : February 1st

The theme of this month's contest is Fictional Movies. Your entry is going to be a movie poster for a movie that does not exist. This can include a fictional movie adaptation of a book, poem, story you've written, anything you want. It can also be a fictional sequel to a movie that already exists. And of course you can totally just make up whatever you want, like I did with my sample entry.

A few tips: Try to make your entry as professional looking as possible by adding actors, a date representing when it will come out in theatres, a rating, the random texty credits thing at the bottom, etc. For the actors, you can name any off the top of your head or include the people you used in your poster. It's up to you. You can also pick any date, and make it fit with your movie's theme if you want. As for the bottom of the poster and the rating, just google movie posters and use the bottoms of those. Here's a good one for people with solid black backgrounds.

RULES</center>
[*] Your movie must be fictional, though you can still use pictures from real movies. It doesn't matter if the title of your movie happens to be the title of a real movie.

[*] Make your entry ***500 by 700 pixels*** (NOT 700 x 500).

<center>This contest is actually being held on my site, I'm just posting it here to get more entries/publicity. You can submit your entries here, or you can submit it at the tagboard on my site (it's just as easy).
To submit your entry at the tagboard, scroll all the way down, and you'll see the tagboard and instructions:
http://raindrops.lemon-drop.net/contest.php

There won't be a poll or voting thread, but I'm going to get maybe 3 people to help me judge. If you're interested, PM me. :)</center>

@Pandora - Haha yes you did. xD I didn't promote it much so I still only have... like... 2 entries. >_< I had to postpone the due date around 5 times. :D

@Aramel Elyanwe - Oooh yay! xD And do you know why there are so many stickies in the contest section? O___o It's slightly overwhelming.

It's for the Yule Ball - they held a series of contests and most of them still need to be judged...

I've got my entry in! I'm exceedingly happy with it xD

Guess what? Last night I was thinking about this contest and what I was going to do. And I thought, and I thought...and now I know what sort of story I'm writing for NaNoWriMo 09.

I think too much.

OK I posted my entry on the tagboard. :)

The film title is borrowed from a novel but my poster isn't necessarily related to the plot of that book. I just thought it sounded cool and fit the imagery of my poster :teehee:
