    Hmm... that would basically be a slideshow. I don't think I could count that as it wouldn't be something you specifially created. It's one thing if you use something from a game along with something you created, look at Veila's cosplay entry as an example.

    Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

    Hello, this is my submission for the contest. I hope whatever I've written meets your criteria, and my proof has been uploaded to my PhotoBucket, should the picture not show.

    When the idea had first been brought up, she had rejected it almost immediately – how could she, Hatsune Miku, be able to entertain anyone with her amateurish singing? Surely the leaders had gone mad; why not the other Vocaloids, like...like Luka, for example! She had the looks, the voice, and the overwhelming charisma to attract just about anyone! Why not make a game dedicated to her, then, instead Miku's lowly self?

    During the first stages of Project Diva, Hatsune Miku decided that she hated the very idea of the game.

    Miku's protests, however, were overlooked, like a pebble standing in the way of a train travelling at full speed, so she settled on the lesser evil: requesting that her friends be featured, too, so as to curb her loneliness, or so she claimed.

    Within two weeks of her pestering, the bosses finally relented: Her fellow Vocaloid and UTAU friends could join too, on one condition: That Miku would design whatever her friends would be wearing, and that they learn whatever choreography within two months.

    She had nodded as gracefully as she could, expressing her overwhelming gratitude, but on the inside, the Virtual Diva cackled. It would take a few hours' worth of practicing a kicked puppy look and crocodile tears to make them agree, but they were nothing compared to what she had in store for her 'loved ones'.

    Revealing swimsuit designs? Check.

    Embarrassing choreography not appropriate for males? Check.

    Oh, she was going to have so much fun.

    In the middle of Project Diva's makings, Hatsune Miku decided that the game had its benefits, and that they overrode whatever insecurities she had about herself...for the moment.

    As the days passed, Miku worked extremely hard, deliberately tiring herself out, and even more so as Project Diva was about to be released. When her friends asked her to rest, she paid them no heed, merely smiling and nodding obediently.

    She knew that she was going to crash, and crash she did.

    A week before the game was released, the Singer of the Future caught a cold of epic proportions – the sickness attacking her system so harshly that she became delirious, unknowingly blurting out the worries that she held: What if the players don't like me? What if they get so disgusted with my singing that they boycott me forever? What if my friends hate my guts and don't ever want to see me after the game is released? Whatifwhatifwhatif...

    The first sensation that she felt after four days of being in bed was that her arms were impossibly heavy, and upon opening her eyes, she realised why: Her friends were lying on her arms, fast asleep, tired from taking care of her. Curiously, a small card had been placed on her lap.

    In it lay five simple words: Remember your reason for singing.

    Ah.

    She remembered now.

    Thank you, everyone.

    The First Sound roused the rest of the Sounds, and they smiled in relief – their little blue sunshine was back at last.

    During the final moments before Project Diva was booted up for the first time, Hatsune Miku remembered – remembered that she sung not to increase sales, but sung for the future, for her friends – no, family –, and most importantly, because she loved to sing.

    -End-

    Proof:

    Thank you!

    Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

    Well, decided to take a break from doing Diva Editing guide and join in the fun. ^^~(And it's all beacuse of the controller)
    But man, kind of feeling wanting to backout when i saw so many works better than mine..... <.<"

    Anyway submiting my embrassing not-so-to-standard work... ^^;
    It feels great.
    “Hey Rin! Return that to me!”
    “No way! It’s my turn now!”

    Laughter echo throughout the room, and Miku had finally looked up from her scores wearily. It’s been another long day for her after practicing new songs, and she decided it’s high time to take a break. Walking out of her room and glance around she found that the Kagamines are fighting over the game controller, while Luka was sitting gracefully at the counter having a chat over tea with Meiko.

    Kaito is nowhere to be found, but as she head towards the kitchen and saw a note pinned at the fridge with ice-cream doodle and a short “be back soon”, she knew immediately that Ice-cream addict had gone out for his new batch of sweet, cold dessert.

    “Miku! Do you want to kick Kaito-nii’s high score for ‘Senbozakura’? He left an insane high-score and right now me and Len are trying to take him down!”

    Grabbing a few leeks from the fridge to munch on and heading towards the dining room, she saw the mini scoreboard Len had made when the game “Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F” was first out. It had almost everyone’s names, and Rin even claim that she will invite all the Vocaloid & Utauloids friends to complete the games with them.

    Seeing the newest game box sitting beside with other Project Diva’s titles, Miku felt a surge of success. She could still remember when the company, SEGA, first offer to make her songs into a rhythm game, she had a tiny unsettle feeling. Will the game sell? Is her song fit with the new costumes they made for the PVs? How will her fans perceive with this?

    In the end all the worries are for naught, as fans worldwide responded it positively, and her fame gained another new level. As the next handheld title, Hatsune Miku: Project Diva 2nd came, containing some duets for her singing along with her family members, she felt grateful. Although solo songs are nice, but she like it when someone sings along with her. It’s always nice to find out how her voice bends with other vocaloids, and she is willing to try out.

    Another grateful moment would be that she somehow helped to promote other vocaloids like big sister Meiko or air-headed brother Kaito. Well, not exactly airhead, but he’s always lost track of things when it wasn’t an ice-cream related issue.

    When Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai released finally, she was thrilled that she had finally had this chance to sing with her good friend, who is also one of her best rival, Megpoid aka Gumi. It was, or is fun, and she hope she had another chance one day to sing other songs with Gumi and showcase to her ever supporting fans other best songs she had sung.
    Taking the controller in hand, she replied, “Nah, not so fast. Let me warm up with Acute before I start on Senbozakura.”

    Acute, it is a sad love tragic song she had sing with Kaito and Luka. Before this newest Project series came, Miku thought she might not have the chance to sing with more than one person, and Extend proves her minor theory right--besides new songs from her Crypton mates, there is only duet songs. Been contented for the fact she had the chance to sing with someone instead alone, and she had the fun of dancing the video on songs she didn’t sing, like Rin Rin Signal and Tsugai Kogarashi, she didn’t give it much thought.

    When she learnt from SEGA that they’ve planned another Project Diva series, and it’s going to have something special inside besides new songs, Miku had waited most eagerly until she got hold of the song list and surprised: they have added some group songs this time.

    As she scrolled through the song list, Miku found the song she wanted to play. Smiling evilly, she headed towards the ‘module change’ button and remarked causally, “Well, shall I make a Kaito X Len X Rin for this song? Since those pairings is kinda popular nowdays.”

    “What! ?” The Kagamines exclaimed, as they watched her in horror as she selecting the modules.

    “No Miku-nee don’t do that!” Rin cried as Miku pressed start button.

    “Come on Miku, 20 leeks for you if you change to Kaito, Luka and Meiko?” Len pleaded, as the mention people except Kaito looked at them amusingly.

    “Too late~” She replied, as she gaming. Ignoring the two embarrassed mirrors she played till the song end, and laughed along the way.

    “Damn it, it’s so funny that I almost missed the star notes again.” Miku remarked, as she noted that she had made another new highscore on her old one, and updating it on the mini whitebroad.

    Star notes, and playing with the use of three modules is something new in Project Diva gaming experience, and Miku enjoy it greatly. At first she had some trouble over the star notes but after some practice, she manage to use this as a weapon of gaining high scores to beat Len, the best player in her family.

    Acute is considered as her most favourite in the use of three modules selection because…. Even she still found it funny and amusing that a jealous person (the role Miku played in), pushed apart of a hug between the rival (Luka) and her lover (Kaito). But let’s face it, in another point of view of this PV if Kaito wasn’t roleplay as a lover like what this song is about, but as a person both wanted to gain attention of, then that’s where the amusement comes in. Of some reasons Rin and Len had been trying to fight over Kaito’s attention (in not a way hentai would think of, thank you very much), so much that Miku decided to tease them using this song, and she enjoyed every single moment of reaction they made.

    “Hey Miku, after you done can you go through the edit PV I had made yesterday? I think I might make a mistake somewhere for the third person and I can’t figure it at all.”

    “Okay~ No problem for it Luka-nee.”

    Yes, besides playing using three modules, in the edit play it also allowed three modules to enter in stage, which made the creativity of song PV making broaden. Just last week Meiko had done a beautiful PV with Miku and her playing electric guitar on stage, and Luka as their drummer, which drums and guitars are a new add towards Project diva F.

    With those new functions add in Project Diva F Miku begin to think it’s really possible that one day, if SEGA decided to make another Project Diva series, she can look forward the possibility of having more vocaloids and more adds for Edit mode play…..

    “MIKU!” Without warning the front door banged down, revealing a very excited green-haired.
    Smiling wide on seeing her best friend, she ignored the grumble from Meiko ( Meiko:“GUMI! YOU BROKE OUR DOOR AGAIN!”) and walked towards her.

    “Miku! Have you heard? SEGA is making another Project Mirai! We might have a chance to sing together again!” Gumi raided excitedly, as she handed her an orange package. “Oh, and a thank you plus game trade of my first music game!”

    “Wow, that’s cool! Thanks Gumi…….Wait, another Mirai? Was it true?”

    Before Gumi can reply, a tall man with long purple hair tied up in ponytail style knocked gently onto Gumi’s head.

    “Gumi, you are blocking the way.”

    “Hello, we come for a visit!”

    “Hiya guys! I’m here to trash Meiko! Is she around?”

    One by one, vocaloids of different company filed in, which confused Miku greatly until Rin spoke.

    “Welcome! Draw your numbers and wait for your turn on ‘Defeat Kaito-nii’s Senbozakura High score!”

    “Wait a minute Rin! Wasn’t our game a non multi-player game? Why all a sudden inviting so many people here!” Miku demanded, until she felt a pat on her shoulder. It was Ia.
    Holding up a photo to Miku’s eye level, Ia answered her question.

    “Well, Kaito somehow managed to play this song in less than 10 fines and Rin posted it in her facebook, declaring that whoever managed to beat this high score will get a grand prize.”

    “And for the first time ever our dear Lenny can’t defeat this score….besides Nyanyanyanyanyanya Extreme which owned by Iroha-chan and SMF extreme by Meiko-nee….. I mean Senbo wasn’t a hard song wasn’t it?” Rin sighed, ignoring complains coming from Len.

    “I’m going to be the highscorer of this song!”

    “No way that will be me!”

    “Hi I’m back…. Eh? Is there a party going on?”

    Looking at the confused blue head who had returned from his ice-cream trip, and her sudden arrival of guests… or game mates rather, she smiled.

    It was a very noisy break, but it feels great.

    And the photo proof.....

    Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

    Remember that you are not just limited to the examples I gave in the rules for what you can enter into the contest. Just remember to keep it creative and that it has to be something related to the Project Diva games.

    I feel I have to make this as a note because it's still confusing some people. I don't want people to think that what I have written is all you can do.

    This contest looks really interesting and I love making Fanfics, but one rule held me back from posting anything at all. That is it has to do with the game. Plus I tend to make a mistake once or twice when releasing as it seems to escape my gaze the first three times.
    Still, I love the entries so far.

    Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

    Another Question About the Video
    ☆Are there and Limitations of the Video? (You know like 1 Minutes - 5 Minutes)
    ☆Is it ok for a High Pitched Luka/Tako Luka Poipo Version?
    ☆Is MMD Background OK?

    Sorry if I haven't asked this question a long time now.

    Busy finding a Wig and the Video Camera's Battery ._.

    Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

    There is no time limit on videos as long as it's not something ridiculous. I'll only watch a 6 hour video provided I'm in the right mindset to do so :P

    As long as what you submit has something to do with anything from the PD games then it's fine, this includes songs, modules scenery and such. I'm not too sure if MMD materials are alright or not because I don't have the software to know how it works. I'm sure if it doesn't fit the rules someone here will point it out to me *cough...Almeria...cough...*

    Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

    Here is my entry: A Thousand Year Solo music video arranged, recorded, and filmed/edited by me.



    Proof of creation:
    Sheet music arranged by myself using Sibelius 7.
    This consisted of about 90 minutes worth of inputting/transcribing notes via mouse and checking with the original song.

    [​IMG]


    Song recorded by myself using a makeshift studio setup in my room with Garageband.
    You can't see it in the picture, but behind me I have two dynamic microphones (one to record below the bell of the sax and one at the octave key) in order to cover the range of the instrument.
    Beside me I have a small 4-channel mixer running into my old MacBook Pro running Garageband.
    This work consisted of about 90 minutes of recording, editing, re-recording, and re-editing, before finalizing and mixing to an mp3.

    [​IMG]

    Here is a snippet of the soprano sax recording by itself, without the backing track (just for further proof):

    https://www.box.com/s/lb0kfbz94ddkyjd1ogx9


    Cosplay by me.
    The wig, coat, and scarf were purchased online from different vendors.
    The eyebrows were colored blue with eye shadow and the nails painted with nail polish I picked up at Wal-Mart.
    The pants are khakis to which I sewed yellow arrows on the bottom sides.
    The shoes are blue and white And1 basketball shoes onto which I colored yellow highlights to match Kaito's real costume.
    The headset is a gaming headset which I modified. Normally it does under the wig, but in the video I am wearing it over the wig.
    This is the only part of the project that I had mostly together BEFORE the contest (the rest was put together specifically for the contest entry).

    [​IMG]


    Video edited by me using Adobe Premiere CS4.
    I had a friend gracious enough to lend me his HD camera, but since he was volunteering his time and effort I was only able to get 3 static shots and a few couple second additive shots.
    The filming ended up taking about 120 minutes (2 hours).
    The editing, thus, consisted of post-production moving angles as well as mixing in the small shots.
    The final version was edit version number 4.
    Total time spent editing ended up being about 240 minutes (4 hours).

    [​IMG]


    Final image of myself in the locale of the original PV in Extend made with help from my brother.
    This was made taking a photo from the filming process and editing it together with a screenshot from the Dreamy Theater Extend PV of the song.
    Work involved ended up being: removing Kaito, the words on screen, and the large rock in the middle, inserting me, altering lighting, and touching up.
    Total time spent equated to approximately 90 minutes.
    Here is the .psd:

    [​IMG]


    Please let me know if I have forgotten anything, or if you need any further proof that this was made by me. I hope you like it! : D

    EDIT: The video is currently set as "unlisted", so it can ONLY be viewed here on the forum. After the contest is over I plan to make it public, but until then, enjoy exclusivity! : D
    EDIT 2: Added more detailed information on the "Proof" section
    EDIT 3: Had to fix all the images/links because my Dropbox broke
