JOIN LIGHTS OUT: PHILIPPINE YAOI CONVENTION’S DOUJIN COMPETITION!
Soon on it’s third year of hosting the annual Philippine Yaoi Convention and other related events, LIGHTS OUT is now holding a doujinshi competition for aspiring doujinshika like you!
The winner of the competition will get their work professionally produced and printed, with all costs* shouldered by LIGHTS OUT. The winning comic will also be launched at the 2006 LIGHTS OUT: Philippine Yaoi Convention. Honestly, how cool is that?!
1) All doujinshi must have yaoi, BL, or shounen-ai plots. However, no narrative restrictions will be imposed on the storyline or script.
2) The doujinshi and its characters should be based from existing anime, manga, movies, tv series, video games, and other media. Absolutely no original works will be allowed.
3) The doujinshi must contain 20-26 greyscale pages and must be digitally sized into B5 at 300DPI resolution. The layout and instructions regarding the technical aspects of the doujinshi will be provided in the LIGHTS OUT website.
4) The art must be personally done by you and your circle. Plagiarized art will be automatically disqualified (plagiarized works include, but is not limited to: traced art, copy-pasted art from other sources, digitally enhanced art from existing print/graphics work, suspiciously similar paneling and layout, etc.).
5) The deadline for submission of works is on MARCH 24, 2006.
6) The organizers reserve the sole right to modify competition rules up to thirty days before the competition deadline.
* The organizers reserve the sole right to negotiate the production and printing specifications of the winning work with the professional print solutions provider.
