GroxQuest Trailer Contest!

I'm introducing the third GroxQuest contest! I've decided to make this one a little different. The goal of this one is to create a trailer for the series as a whole.

The rules are:
1: The trailer can be made using any software you want.
2: The trailer should be five minutes maximum, though you can make it more if you really want. But keep in mind that people may get bored if it's too long.
3: The trailer should give the viewer a good look at the series, without giving too much away.
4: The trailer CANNOT be posted on YouTube or shown to the public in any way.
5: The trailer cannot contain profanity or any inappropriate content. Remember, some Spore players are young!
6: The trailer can contain shots of landscapes, plants, and even cityscapes, but no people or animals. Don't include anything that implies an Earth setting.
7: You shouldn't include clips from movies or video games (except Spore, of course!).
8: Please don't use any music with lyrics! Hopefully you know what I mean by that.
9: Be sure to credit the series to me (Mitchz95).
10: Post your trailers in this thread.

The winning entry will be posted on YouTube (by me) and I will uprate all the creator's Adventures (as long as they're appropriate).

The due date is February 1, 2011, though the contest will continue until I have a minimum of three entries.

Good luck, and have fun!

hm... i'm good with spore trailers... so i may give this a try, BUT i do not know where i would post it if not youtube...

If we're not allowed to upload the video to a public place how will you see it?

E-mail an attachment or something? \:|

i wouldn't be able to do that. max vid length on my e-mail is 15 seconds...

Can't you post it here? I've seen people put videos into their posts.

but you have to upload it to youtube first.

Can you delete videos you've put on YouTube?

If so, then fine, you can put them on YouTube. But delete them as soon as you've put them here.

As soon as the video is deleted you won't be able to view them again. Even if you have posted them here, it won't play.

Okay, here's what's gonna happen.

Post your videos on YouTube and here. Make sure to leave a link to your video on YouTube. Once the contest ends, the contestants who didn't win will delete their entries from YouTube.

Could someone move this to the contest section? It's not working for me. When I select "User-Made Contests" to move it, it says "Forum does not exist" or something along those lines.

it says it doesn't exist for me too

I'll try. Moving!

Sorry for the confusion. It's in the User Made Contests section now.

Thanks for moving it, Glasspinne!

Sounds good. May enter. Can I have a link to the GroxQuest sporecast or something?

There's a link to the Sporecast in the "The GroxQuest Series" thread in the Feedback section.

Fine. I'll look there.

Just a reminder: while the contest officially ended on February 1st, I will continue to accept entries until I have at least three. I currently have zero.

Come on, GACers. Let's not have a repeat of the Spaceship Contest!

PS: Remember to let me know once you've put it on YouTube. And provide a link!

This contest is too hard to enter. That's why you aren't getting very many entries. Only really popular creators can pull off a hard contest like this one. Not very many people are adept in video-making. I suggest you make an easier contest if you want people to enter.

In my last contest, the idea was to make a spaceship to be used by the Terran Empire, also in my GroxQuest series. I ran the contest for a while, but not a single entry was received by the deadline. Fortunately, by that time I had decided not to put humans in the series anyway, but that's not important.

My first contest was relatively successful - I got four entries - but since nobody showed interest in the second one, I've decided to make the third one a little different. But I probably should improve the prize.

The new prize: In addition to uprating all the winner's Adventures, I'll make a series of creations advertising an Adventure (or series) of his/her choice. Hopefully that'll be more appealing.

Please lock this, nobody's entering.
