Podfic Rules

Hey guys, after a lot of discussion we have solidified the rules for the podfic. Many thanks to @luvtheheaven for all of your help in figuring out what is appropriate.

The rules are these (and will be added to the rules page!)

all podfics have to be beta’d 

all podfics must be a reading of the entire fic.

In the audio, you must name the original author. (I.e. saying “This is a reading of “Title” by “Author”.)

cover art is not required. If you choose to include it, there are no rules in how it looks, except that it must be your creation, not artwork from another artist. 

Also, submission guidelines for authors will be posted soon! Stay tuned :)

Hi, I'm just clarifying something. Your Rules/FAQ/Schedual say that we have to have an AO3 account (which I do) and that stories must be posted by Oct 31. Is there a collection we need to post to specifically, or what?

Yes there is.

Here’s the link to the AO3 collection.

Do you need more artists for this big bang? What kinds of art are allowed? I might be willing to do a fanmix or a fanvid trailer but I'd strongly prefer to do podfic (audiofic) as art if I were to participate as an artist. I would kind of love to be a part of this big bang and I missed the possibility to be a writer is all, so, maybe as an artist... I just thought I'd ask-I don't have the ability to draw or create original visual art so I can't be an artist if that's the only kind of art needed.

We absolutely do need more artists for the big bang!

After discussing this question, we’ve decided to allow the following art styles, in addition to the ones listed here. 

fanmixes (requires a cover image that is at least 540 px wide and 300 px tall, and 8 songs)

fanvid (must be at least 1 minute long and a transformation of content - ie it can’t just be one scene from the show with the audio layered over with a song)

podfic (requires some kind of transformation - this can mean that you add sound effects, music, or even just multiple voices, but in some way it needs to be different than simply reading the story aloud. If you are unable to add sound effects or music, it is acceptable to do a podfic and create a cover that is at least 540 px wide and 300 px tall)

If these requests are unreasonable (which is totally possible! most of us are writers, not artists), please feel free to send us messages about this. 

Thanks!

Edit: After further discussion, the podfic rules are not set in stone at this point. We will update as we decide on more. 

Podfics are definitely allowed as art, but we’re still ironing out what the requirements will be.

Hi! I signed up as an author for the micro bang, and you guys said all the confirmation emails went out last night, but I didn't receive one. So yeah, you said to send an ask in if that happens, so here's me letting you guys know! Thanks! :)

We did receive your application! it’s likely that you sent yours in after I went to bed and so I didn’t get it sent to you before now :)

I’ll be sending the remaining confirmations right now. Be on the look out for that email!

Edit: whoops i meant to answer this privately! Sorry all.

To anyone else who hasn’t received a confirmation yet, please let us know! 

[acearowolves]

All confirmation emails for authors have gone out

As of 8/31 10:20pm CST. If you didn't receive a confirmation, send us an ask and we'll figure out an alternative for you to sign up. I'm going to go to bed soon so the forms will remain open at least until I wake up in the morning. -Mod Steen
