One Little Spark Season 2: The Quest for More Views
--Overview--
The One Little Spark Competition is returning for a whole new season with whole new challenges and while new judges!
@PerGronStudio and @Outbound have stolen the Dreamfinder's Ship,which can take that one little spark of inspiration and turn it into wonderful creations, from @Pi on my Cake! Now, they're looking for some creative, talented, and fun Imagineers to come on a joy ride with us and make some amazing things!
We'll drive the ship, you guys imagine the stuff!
--Gameplay--
Once again, this will be a team based competition that will take place over 8 scenes (each scene is a new prompt or round).
These scenes will be divided over 3 acts of 1-3 scenes apiece, and each act will have it's own overarching theme for the scenes within the larger story of our joyride on the dreamfinder's stolen ship to help keep the competition constantly feeling fresh and exciting!
The entirety of this game will be taking place at the US parks of WDW and perhaps some in Disneyland, so for those who want to play in those parks, this is the game for you!
For each victory, the winning team earns a point. The team with greatest amount of points gets to elect one of their own to the finale as a finalist.
Solo rounds also contribute to each team's points. The winner of two of the three solo rounds goes to the finale. The Final finalist will be selected based on gameplay by the judges. To keep the open nature of the comp, these four finalists would get to privately draft the rest of the competitors into their owns teams. These teams are named after the contestant's favorite color (which they will put down in the application).
--The Two Teams--
Players will be divided up into two teams to compete against each other. Though, the main focus is having fun and creating awesome things more than getting tooooooo competitive.
The teams this time around are based on some competing colors, these are Team Red and Team Green.
Our goal is to keep teams together and not move people around too often so that teams can develop a good chemistry and maybe even a few friendships! If people do need to, for whatever reason, be switched around, it will be mostly in between acts.
While you will always be on a team together, you and your team may not always be working on a single project together. There are two different kinds of scenes in this game.
All for One: Group Based Projects will be more traditional team based game play where there is one prompt and the team will brainstorm and work together to develop one singular project together. All the team for one project.
One for All: Individual Based Projects will be feature a prompt where each member of the team will be working on their own solo project for it. These prompts will of course be simpler and less complicated since everyone is working solo. At the end of the round, the average score of all the projects submitted by a team will be the teams score. That way, if someone doesn't turn in a project, it won't hurt the rest of the team! Team brainstorming threads will still be sent out for these rounds and players are encouraged to help each other and brainstorm and talk about the project with their team! You are still a team even on the individual based rounds after all!
--Fun Focused--
The focus of the competition is on having fun and growing as armchair imagineers! We wanted to fill this summer timeslot with a fun comp that could help our new imagineers to the boards get into competitions. So, we're taking steps in setting up this competition to try to make it easy for everyone to compete if they would like!
The first major step is that projects will not be judged on detail. I'm not saying that a team of 8 turning in a 5 sentence project would be a good idea, but the focus is on hitting the important notes and communicating your idea effectively rather than on conveying every part of the whole experience. A well written paragraph can go just as far as a whole essay. That being said, if you do want to write and have the time to write an 81 page Fantasyland Expansion, I will happilyskim read through it! Nothing wrong with detail, just don't feel pressured if the team doesn't have the time. Same with using reference photos vs. original artwork.
