Art Submission Guidelines 2015

[spnreversemod.livejournal.com]

Hey, ReverseBangers! How we doin'?

We're starting to get artwork rolling in (Awesome!), so guess we'd better update our submission guidelines!

• Art pieces should be completed drafts. You may still make changes, but the art should be complete enough that a writer could work from it even if no changes are made.


• They are due by 11:59 PM in the world's westernmost time zone (GMT -11) Friday, October 30th. In short, as long as it is October 30th somewhere in the world, you're good. You may send your art in beforehand if you are ready. Early Bird Exception: Artists who wish to submit up to two (2) prompts must complete and submit one prompt by 11:59 PM in the world's westernmost time zone (GMT -11) Friday, October 23rd. Otherwise, only one prompt will be accepted per artist.


• Submissions should be sent to spnreversemod@gmail.com with the subject: Art Submission. Attach the file to the email.


• You may submit up to two (2) pieces (one by the Early Bird deadline of Oct. 23rd, the remaining one by Oct. 30th), but participants are welcomed to work with their authors to create additional art once their pieces have been claimed.


• If you are doing a comic style piece with panels, it should be one image file which will then count as one piece.


• There is no maximum size for art, though each art prompt must be at least 400 by 600 pixels. If it is a video, it must be at least 30 seconds in length.


• There is no need to submit a thumbnail version.


• Images can be sent in the following formats: GIF, JPG, PNG, and TIFF.


• Vids can be sent in the following formats: AVI, MOV, MPG, and WMV.


• Please do not upload your art anywhere; artwork should remain anonymous until after claim reveals. If and only if you have a vid with a file size too large to e-mail, you may upload to an anonymous file sharing site like mediafire and send us the link.


• Please make the file name your LJ username and whether it's RPF, SPN(FPF) or either. For example, username_either.jpg or username_spn.avi. If you are submitting multiple pieces, your Early Bird prompt should also have the word “Early” in the file name and the subsequent file (if you submit a second piece) should have a unique name. For example, early_username_spn.jpg and username_rpf.jpg. This will allow us to keep things organized and to ensure no duplicate file names.

You must include the following information in the body of your e-mail:

Livejournal Name:
Email:
Fandom: (indicate here if your art is RPF, SPN or either)
Title of prompt:
Rating of Art:
Highest Rating Fic Can Be:
Pairing or Gen: (indicate here if you want gen, have pairing preferences or don’t care either way)
Characters: (please tell us who is in your art and who you would like to be included or excluded from the accompanying story)
Warnings: (please indicate whether the art contains Graphic Violence, Major Character Death, Rape/Non-Con or Underage content, in addition to any other warnings you think are necessary. Please note: genres are not considered warnings so include them in the description field if they are worthy of note.)
Short description of art: (Enticements may be included here, but this should not be a detailed story request)
Artist is willing to make more pieces to go with the story: (Yes or No)

Please copy and paste the above text into your email to make sure you don't forget anything.

If you have any questions, feel free comment here or send an email to spnreversemod@gmail.com.

YAY... just a quick question, when do you start sending out notifications on receiving submissions? Cause I sent my first one in on... Tuesday? I think and since I haven't heard anything I was wondering, mainly because one of my submissions got lost in the mail before. :)

I'M SO READY FOR CLAIMS TO GO UP. Except for that small matter of not being ready at all. XP I'm very excited, tho!

One quick thing: I sent a question to the mod email account a couple days ago, and haven't heard anything back. Just wanna make sure somebody got it?

Real Person Fanworks (at least I THINK so!) That's how we're using it, anyways. :)
