Purpose:
The object of this contest is to encourage the creation of castle theme stories.
Subject matter may be anything within the castle theme, including historical and
the fantastical. All stories must have a beginning, middle and an end. We do not
want chapter one of your magnum opus! There are major points for having an
interesting plot and dynamic characters, so be creative!
Categories:
Comic Book
(Similar to Captain Ahnee stories by Dan Jassim)
Comic Book style is a story told primarily with pictures, with narrator boxes
and dialogue bubbles to help. Each frame of the comic should be a separate
picture. Sub-pictures are allowed for dramatic affect (Admins discretion will be
used to figure if there are too many sub-pictures in a comic). Maximum length:
120 frames
Illustrated Short Story
(Similar to Chronicles of Ikros by Anthony Sava)
Illustrated Short Story style is more literary, allowing for greater exploration
of character and plot. We ask that there be around one LEGO picture per full
paragraph, or approximately two images per page of text. Short stories can be
uploaded Maximum length: 20 pages (~50 pictures)
Evaluation:
Entries will be evaluated on their creativity in plot and character, quality of
LEGO creations and quality of presentation. The judges will be the
Classic-Castle Administrators and a special, Guest Judge who will be announced
later.
Prizes:
We know that writing and illustrating a story is not the easiest thing to do, so
to get your attention, we’ve got big prizes!
Best Illustrated Short Story: 7019 Viking Fortress vs. Fafnir Dragon
Best Comic Book: 7019 Viking Fortress vs. Fafnir Dragon
Best Overall (Guest Judge’s pick): 8877 Vladek’s Dark Fortress
