This is an idea for a competition im wanting to hold.
Name: My Little Mashup Competition
Info: The basic idea is to have a contest between mashup artists old or new.. Submit your mashup by the Due date and after the due date there will be a public vote. There will be two winners. A winner chosen by the public vote and a winner chosen by me personally. For the personal vote you will be given scores on topics such as,
Pitch- (1 to 10), Awkwardness- (0 to 10 a 0 being non which is best), Timing- (1 to 10), and Feel (1 to 10). the scores will have descriptions as to why i chose the score i chose in detail beside it. (Dates will be added in final version but im looking at having it as a month long competition)
Rules:
1. It can only use MLP related elements. Use acapellas and instrumentals either from the show or from the brony community.
2. Dont make a mix. Keep it as one mashup. By this i mean the songs have to be together. You can't just transfer different songs into eachother. (EX: one song plays for a certain amount of time then fades into another song).
3. You can put many songs together for the mashup or it can be a simple A+B mashup. Just keep within the time limit of being no longer than 10 minutes.
4.Do not add original elements to any of your vocals or instrumentals. Manipulating the vocals and instrumentals (EX: cutting, volume changes, changing pitch or speed etc..) are acceptable but no adding your own instruments or vocals.
(Rules may be added or changed in finished version)
Why are you hosting it?: Before i became a brony i had already been doing mashups for 5+ years. I love to hear other peoples works and mashups. I am very picky when it comes to doing a well done mashup (I even get upset at myself for some of my old works) so i know what to look for. I wont have a prize but it still will be fun.
Where i need your help. : Before i host this competition I need to set up a few things such as a place to poll. If you know of a good way or place to set up a poll like this please tell me. Also another reason im posting this before I host it is that I need to know if there are going to be enough people joining the competition or going to vote to know if it's worth having. So please tell me of what you think of the idea and tell me if you may join or are willing to vote when its all over.
