Just a reminder about FA's PoA-themed Alfonso Cuaron Fangirl & Fanboy Challenge

[heidi]

Just a reminder:

FictionAlley, purveyors of aids to Fanfic Authors and Artists, are pleased to bring you: The Azkaban Assignment!

It's an Alfonso Cuaron Fangirl/Fanboy Extravaganza for the premiere of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Reviews of the film so far (from fans as well as professional critics) have acclaimed the film for its cinematographic brilliance and its darker, richer tone. To celebrate Cuaron's success, our challenge is to write a fic or create a piece of fanart which incorporates a concept or image (like the Frog Chorus or the piano in the Shrieking Shack) that doesn't contradict Book Three, but likewise doesn't appear in the book.

Some images to inspire your writing:
Sirius's lines to Remus as he's transforming
The way the Trio is standing when they think Buckbeak is being executed
What happens to clothing during a transformation
How did Hagrid get to be so good at skipping rocks?
Is Pansy's hairstyle inspired by Louise Brooks?
Why doesn't Parvati think that freaky Jack in the Box is scary?
Wizarding "jazz" and Big Band music - when was it trendy, if ever?


Post your art (in the usual way) here or post your cookies or ficlets here sometime within the month of June. Fics may be drabble length (100 words) or up to 3000 words.

All entrants (as of July 1, 2004) will receive six months' usage of a FictionAlley Online Notepad.

Drat. Please feel free to disregard the previous comment. After thinking about it, I doubt that I will have the time unless it's still open to entries after June has ended or I were to write it in the hours between the dawning of July in Thailand and in America. Sorry to have bothered you.

Heh, if we have very few entrants, maybe we'll leave it open through Harry Potter's birthday. But yeah, that would be totally fine!
