:iconneedlerplz: Salut, everyone!

First of all I want to inform you that Starlene is on holidays until July 16th, so please direct all questions or suggestions you have at me during this time.

Second, I want to remind you all of our Adaption Contest (infos below). We already have great entries, but maybe more of you want to join? ;) You have until August 1st to submit your piece, roughly about a month left.

Greetings, and I hope the summer is warm and inspirational to all of you~

Adaptation Meets Adaptation

Les Misérables the musical movie introduced the story to thousands of new fans last December, but it's by no means the first adaptation of Victor Hugo's novel. Before, besides the world-famous musical, there have been countless other movies, plays, radio plays, anime, comics, even another musical, a fighting game and a Disney comic...

The task in this contest is to portray characters from two or more different versions of Les Misérables interacting.

:bulletblue: You can use any adaptations, and also the original novel. Here's a list with many of the adaptations, and detailed descriptions of some of them can be read here.
:bulletwhite: Different productions of the musical count as separate adaptations. You can, for example, have the 10th and 25th anniversary concert casts interact with each other.
:bulletred: Fanfiction, fanart and alternate universe scenarios don't count as adaptations.
:bulletblue: You must use at least two different adaptations (one of them can be the novel), but there's no upper limit.
:bulletwhite: The contest is open to both visual arts and literature. Remember that your submission must follow the Submission Rules. The usage of photos and screenshots from any of the adaptations is forbidden. Literature entries shouldn't have more than one chapter.
:bulletred: One entry per person. The entry should be made for this contest – no art dated before June 5th 2013 will be accepted. Please submit your entries to the Adaptation Contest folder in the group gallery.
:bulletblue: The contest deadline is August 1st.
:bulletwhite: The winner will be chosen via voting.

The prize (so far)
:bulletblue: Winner: a Les Mis programme directly from Queen's Theatre, London, from imaKuteMole, a jewel box commission from NoOneWouldListen, a drawing from Katsumii, a render from 3dLux, a bust sketch of a character of your choice by NinjaMiki, a drawing from SarlyneART, a drawing from Starlene
:bulletwhite: 1st runner-up: a drawing from imaKuteMole, a drawing from SarlyneART, a drawing from Starlene
:bulletred: 2nd runner-up: a drawing from imaKuteMole, a drawing from SarlyneART, a drawing from Starlene

:bulletred: Interested in making a fellow Mizzie happy? We're accepting donations to the prize! Art, features, points, whatever you've got... Let us know if you'd like to give something!
:bulletred: A huge thank you to all who have donated to the prize so far!
