Hi Seeker Fans! Ready to embark on another fun-filled video adventure with LOTSvideo? Sure you are! Well this time, no printers are required! Just you and your ability to sing......Lip-sing that is!
Welcome to the
At first glance, this project may seem daunting, but we broke it into small sections that should take minimal time and effort while allowing the fandom to have some fun!
The premise of this project is to create a Legend of the Seeker fan "music video", and to get as many people as possible wearing costumes/customized Seeker clothing or using LotS related props. It is not essential to have these to be included, but we want to show ABC/Disney that fans are willing to spend money on merchandise. We will be using the FOB’s song which can be listened to here:

You can also
Download the song.
Do not use the previous version on youtube to lip-sync to. Everyone must use this new version for the illusion to work.
We will then edit these clips of you lip synching over the original song track, so none of the sound in your personal submission will be included, only the video part will make it to the completed project. But, when filming your entry, please make sure the song is audible in the background, as it will make it easier for us to match up your video with the audio when it comes to editing.
Here is a short example of the kind of thing we are looking for.

I am sure there are a lot of you who are much better actors/dancers than us, so put us to shame! These are not going to be in the final, they are just lines that were easy for us to use as a demonstration, so you can still submit for these lines if desired.
VERY IMPORTANT: To ensure that we get a complete song, you'll need to "sign up" for the line you wish to do. This way we'll know all lines have been taken and none have been incorrectly duplicated. It may seem like we are being excessively complicated, but this will ensure the best video possible. So here is what you will need to do....
- BEFORE filming your section you will need to look at the outline of the lyrics listed at the bottom of this post.
- Find an available line that you would like to act out and either leave us a comment on this post with your choice or email us at LOTSvideo@gmail.com. We will put your screenname, an alias or initials of your choosing next to a line as it gets taken. We will have people checking both this post and our email throughout the day, so the list of taken lines will be updated quickly. You may also provide us with a ranking of 2-3 lines that you'd prefer and we'll match you with the highest ranking line we can. Only after you see your name/initials next to your line should you start filming your section.
- If you wish to submit an entry for a line in the Chorus, indicate the line but please also lip synch the entire chorus. We may use several people at once and/or split screens depending on the amount of submissions.
- The Rap portion of the song may prove difficult to lip synch to, but we still encourage you to do so if you have the desire and can accurately keep up with Jars.
- Another option for this section, however, is to show people dancing to it. This does not have to be full blown choreography, it could just be you "getting down" to the beat or pantomiming.
- Also, we may include pictures in this sections so if you do not have access to a video camera/webcam and can only submit a photo, you may still be able to participate. But we cannot guarantee all photos will be included as it depends on how many video submissions are received and how we are able to edit them together.
This project is more complicated than the Pass It On project as you will need to perform the specific line you are assigned. Due to this added complication, we encourage you to ask us questions or relay concerns.
Any questions or concerns, along with your final submission should be sent to LOTSvideo@gmail.com.
The Deadline for entry is August 18th, 2010 at 11pm EST!
IN SUMMARY:
1. Check outline and find available song lyric.
2. Leave comment here on Live Journal or email LOTSvideo@gmail.com with your requested line (and up to two alternates).
3. Confirm that you have been given that line by checking the outline below and looking for your screenname, name, or initials.
4. Get FOBs song ready on youtube. or
Download it! 5. Get your costumes/props/customized clothing out (if you have it)
6. Lip Sync and/or groove to your chosen part (please have the song playing in the background as it will help us line up your video submission with our audio). Also, please film a few seconds before and after your line finishes as we need some leeway to join it to the adjacent clips.
7. Send your submission, along with your name (or an alias) and the line number/numbers you are singing to LOTSvideo@gmail.com
8. Start telling your friends about the project, either to get them involved, or at least intrigued enough to check out the video once it is finished!
9. Make sure you are subscribed to LOTSvideo youtube account so you will be told when the video is released and can rate/comment on it.
Thanks! This may seem very complicated, but just like the Pass It On project, if we do it right, it will be really cool!

Here is the current breakdown of the lines in the song. Some lines have suggestions next to them in brackets, but as there are a lot of creative people in the fandom who may come up with something better, please feel free to follow your own creative instinct. And if you are lucky enough to have friends who will participate, do a group entry. We want people to be enthusiastic and animated: remember, this is supposed to look like a music video!
Blue Indicates Lines Received
If your name is still red, please submit your response as soon as you can. Thanks!

Rap part: (If you can accurately keep up with Jars in this section you are welcome to try to lipsynch the rap, but we expect that will prove difficult...Instead, anyone who is wanting to dance can break loose here! Even some head bobbing or swaying is fine, or just use expressions that are relevant to the line you are submitting for. But remember to have the song playing in the background so that you are in time with the beat). This is also the section that we may include photos. We cannot be definite until we see how it looks.
