Hello,
Time for another giveaway \o/
This one is about the player created ads that will be shown during the New Eden Open. Here you can find more information about the prerequisites for the videos themselves and here is the NEO devblog. I thought it would be nice to do something together from scratch. I want you to create a script/storyboard for what is going to be a 15 second long spot. The spot should be an advertisement for the services Viktor, JL3Eleven, Kane, Min Lo, myself and others provide (trading, mercenary work, district sales, currency exchange, escrow services, etc.). Check this thread for more information on that.
The ad should be directed at EVE pilots and should spark interest in DUST, our services and our community. I personally like slow heavy stuff that sends chills down your spine, but feel free to go wild. Voice over? Music? Visuals? I've never written a proper script/storyboard, tonight I'll try to update this post with my idea as an example. In the meantime, here is a small selection of what was shown during the last alliance tournament, mostly for corps/alliances:
SniggWaffe Ad (& this ) (group)
Test Alliance Ad (group)
Somer Blink (service)
Dark Taboo (group)
EVEBloggers (service)
FCON (group)
SWP (Service)
Black Legion (group)
CVA (group)
PL (group)
Exodus. Oh my (group)
PIZZA (group)
That's what I could dig up with a small search. You have time until downtime on Monday 27th of January to post your ideas for an ad here, the more detailed the better. Also feel free to leave your questions and feedback here and discuss. The end result matters, so feel free to edit your posts throughout. The three submissions I like the most will receive 100million ISK each 
Later this paragraph will be replaced by my own idea for an ad.

Thor made me hate them. Every damn shot started as a dutch angle/was one the entire time.
Sorry. I like this though. +1
Everybody hates them because that's kinda what they're supposed to do 
Guess this here comes closest to what i mean. Or maybe this from 1:37 - 1:49

DUST Fiend wrote:I'll probably try to toss something together, do we just need the script or the actual video?
Just the script for now, the rest comes later. This is going to be a multi part giveaway.

Can you specify?
Fire of Prometheus wrote:Castor, you have got to be one of the most generous people I know o7 So by service, could I do a script for the ARC Program?
Thanks, and kinda. See below.
KING CHECKMATE wrote:I am very creative. But not sure what i have to do. ok So i DESCRIBE the add to you like you did in your OP right? and whats the purpose of this AD again?
I want a script that me and others can use as blueprint to create adverts for the tournament stream. For instance, in the example I provided you could fill in whatever you like, be it Kanes escrow service or Viktors BPO marketplace. I guess the general theme is "Mercenary Businesses". But if you have any ideas beyond that I'd be most interested in hearing them!

Fire of Prometheus wrote:Like is this supposed to be a 15 second recruitment vid/ad for a certain corp/group?
Not at this point, no. And it should be an ad for a service, not recruitment. I hope that when this first part of the creation process is done a couple of people will be interested in having an ad created for them. We'll then refine the submissions to fit them perfectly and go into production. Should no one be interested in that I'm just gonna use all the ads for myself >:D

Viktor Hadah Jr wrote:Might be hard to make an advertisement for Castor or myself since it requires a lot of Dust 514 ISK, would be an interesting concept for min lo or kain.
But if anyone has an idea for an advertisement for me, feel free to contact me.
Personally I am trying to spread my wings a bit when it comes to making money (them giveaways are pricey ^^). The ads are mostly going to be watched by capsuleers btw, unlike dust bunnies they have money xD
Fire of Prometheus wrote:Lol well the arc program is a commando training group 
Ya, I've read your thread. Now take the example I've given. I can think of many ways of altering it slightly to fit your program :)

Dust and those services aren't EVE related?
And CCP wouldn't mind some DUST presence in their stream anyway. They better won't

They better won't I'm just posing the question, the rules say it has to be EVE related, so I'm just curious if DUST actually counts in that or not.
I doubt a blueberry will stumble in here to clarify. But it does, trust me :3

Bunny Demon wrote:How do you do you even have 1.1 billion isk to give out (looking at your sig) Do you farm PC or something? 
No, I am trading and I have reserves EVE side (Kane and Min Lo do money exchanges). Most of what I earn I put back into the EVE and DUST communities, since I have no use for super capitals (and it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling ^^)
The amount in my sig if for the DUST side. And it's out of date

Right now I am only looking for the scripts. This giveaway is not for corp recruitment ads btw:

Fair enough I guess, my corp wanted me to make a video for the stream anyway so no worries. ^_^
Would be really happy if you submitted a script for this event. Nice editing skills btw, even though the footage and music are somewhat generic
Now I feel like an ass for saying that

Oh my, I am really tempted to leave this running for another week to collect more ideas. But then again, it probably won't spark more interest than it already has.
Oh well, only a couple of hours left

My apologies for taking so long with getting the results to you. In addition to my bumpy RL this event hasn't sparked a lot of excitment in the community, even with the kind help of CCP. As such I have to admitt that I also had a hard time getting excited over this event. That being said, I want to thank you for your submissions, I enjoyed reading them and playing them out in my head! So without further ado, here are your scores:
Zion Shad 17
Fire of Prometheus 12, 9, 14
Roy Ventus 12
Borne Velvalor 16
ANON Cerberus 0
Mahal Daj 15
Aeon Amadi 14
Marston VC 15
Ansiiis The Trustworthy 4
DUST Fiend 18
Jadek Menaheim 16
Concept and realization possibility could yield 10 points each. I also took the liberty to award an extra points for style where I saw fit (talking tanks anyone?). Lets proceed to the fun part of this giveaway in the next post. Yay for triple posting \o/

Congrats to the winners DUST Fiend, Zion Shad, Borne Velvalor & Jadek Menaheim! Since Borne and Jadek share the same amount of points I'll just go ahead and split the 100 mil between them. I also decided to award 25mil to FireofPrometheus for his effort. Every other participant who got more than 10 points will receive 5 mil ISK. IMA MAKE IT RAIN \o/
Til next time
