# Bonus challenge! Make 5 seconds of video for a Kunt song
B3ta and Kunt have joined forces in a plot to get a very bad taste record high in the charts at the height of the royal wedding. We need you to make 5 second animation chunks we can bung together to make a video of.

The song and lyrics are here:
b3ta.com/features/kuntroyalweddingvideo/

And I'm around for a bit to answer questions as I probably have made a hash of the write up.

I've opened a challenge for it here:

# eeeeeexcellent.
Um, in which format, .gif, .mp4, .mov? or is that unimportant?

# whatever you can do that we can import into a video editing program really
but the video itself will be 1920x1080 25fps, and video should be 16:9

So I'd suggest making something big - and sticking a small preview on the board.

# Hmmm, any chance of getting it split up and assigned?
would be a pisser to do proper lip sync or a bit specifically about Di and Dodi only to find everyone had done that bit.
Or get a list of those who will definitely do it and then Kunt can randomly assign each person a bit of his choosing.

# It'll be a more effective/damaging if the images fit the lyrics
I'd say worth a punt,

Maybe take names, shove them on a google spreadsheet and get people to fill in how far they've got as they do it.
That way other people can jump in if it's going tits up for someone.

We want this done right don't we? ;)

I wouldn't mind chipping in but I've got a lot on at the moment.

I can nominate myself as a gap-filler (oo-err).

I was supposing you were going on the same basis that the B3ta illuminti were going to take over this project too!
I just find it funny that you conspiracy theoried your way out of a prize as I believe that Terry thought your compo entry would have made a good mug. Oddly fitting really.

# So you didn't flounce out of that one then?
Nah, just thinking, you know, I believe you are looking for a job and career in graphic design, and I dunno, perhaps designing a logo which was chosen as the "winning" one for a charity might look good for future employers, they love that sort of thing. You know, using your skills even when out of work, for a non-profit organisation.

But meh, mugs lol

# I think we should give everyone a shot at it and let him decide

he might need to dig through a shitload of footage, but at least everyone gets a go at it.

Or maybe a gruesome rendition of Princess Anne's pitbulls mauling two victorian-looking street children.
