multi-fandom podfic remix challenge

Your Remixapod 2020 creators are revealed!

• Remixapod 2020 collection on AO3

The separate Remixapod treats collection is still open for submissions, and will now remain open, so please feel free to make and submit any treats that you find inspiration for. Remember that there are no minimums or format restrictions on Remixapod treats.

• Remixapod 2020 - treats collection on AO3
• Treats and posting instructions on Dreamwidth

Remixers:

You may now update any author notes to identify yourselves and acknowledge any beta help you had, and identify yourself in comments.

Podficcers:

Please continue to enjoy the works in both collections, and to show your appreciation with kudos and comments! As before, if you are curious to know how a remixer has taken inspiration from a source then we encourage you to comment, and make your own speculation, or ask them about it!

Please don't hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any questions! You can comment right here, on the FAQ post, on twitter @ remixapod or send us an email: remixapod at gmail.

We’re past the submission deadline, and we have so many wonderful remixes to reveal later on!

For remix participants who have extensions, are pinch-hitting, or want to submit another remix, the AO3 collection is now moderated which means that when you submit your works, it will not show up in the collection until we approve it.

As a general reminder, please make sure you include a description or transcript if your remix is not text-based. Such things can include alt- or plain-text for images (which can be as long or short as you like, as long as they describe the image). If you’ve made a fanmix, this can be linking to the lyric pages of the songs you’ve used, or including excerpts of the lyrics. If your remix is audio or podfic without a pre-existing text, then a transcript is required, and feel free to request help generating one if you don’t think you’ll have time!

The Remixapod 2020 collection goes live anonymously on June 7th. Please make sure your AO3 work is complete before the 7th, as your mods are in two different time zones and we don’t want you to get caught out with an incomplete work if the collection opens before you add your finishing touches! This includes making sure all your links and embedded images work, you’ve added your various creator’s notes, and linked back to the correct Work/s Inspired By. The creators for all these wonderful remixes will be revealed a week later on June 14th.

And hey, if you’re all finished and really want to get stuck into some more remixing, or if you’re a podficcer who still wants to get involved, how about checking out our treats spreadsheet and creating a no-minimums treat? If you decide to create a treat, remember that we have a separate collection for them (remixapod 2020 - treats). This collection will remain open and unmoderated past the author reveals date, so submit works to your heart’s content.

Please don't hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any questions! You can comment right here, on the FAQ post, on twitter @ remixapod or send us an email: remixapod at gmail.

No new info here, just the relevant parts of the Intro and Rules post in one place for you. Please take another look at the full Rules, Timeline and FAQ to refresh your memory, if you need to.

Please sign up by replying to this post, including the folllowing:

• Static links (i.e. not tumblr links. Dreamwidth/AO3/your own hosting is fine) to minimum 3 and maximum 6 of your own podfic. Any file format is ok.
• Include the fandom and duration for each podfic.
• Whether or not you would like your podfic added to the treats spreadsheet, where anyone interested in the challenge (not just authors who have signed up), will be able to access the list in order to make freeform remixes.

Reminders from our rules that:

• Your podfic must be from a minimum of 3 different fandoms.
• They must have Blanket Permission or be specifically permissioned for this challenge.
• Any multivoice podfic must have permission from the other readers.
• Permissions are up to you to secure, and we will not be checking/monitoring whether works are permissioned.

Some additional sign-up suggestions from us:

• Please bear in mind ease of matching when choosing your fandoms. Selecting at least one podfic from a larger fandom will make you easier to match (although ultimately, you must follow your heart!)
• Please bear in mind that not every author signing up may be comfortable listening to explicit podfic, and including at least one podfic rated below M may make matching easier.
• Please bear in mind that not every author may be able or inclined to listen to longer podfic. Absolutely submit your epic! But also consider submitting something under 20 minutes, too.

Please don't hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any questions! We'd like to keep the comments on this post for sign-ups only, but we'd love any questions either on the question-asking post, on twitter at remixapod or by email: remixapod at gmail.

ETA: These are closed as of the morning of Saturday 23 March. Please get in touch if you have a question about your sign-up
