2016 Reverse Bang Announcement!
It’s time for the Cap-Iron Man Reverse Bang! If you haven’t participated before, The Reverse Bang is an annual @cap-ironman event where artists submit art to be claimed by authors for fics (the opposite of the Big Bang, where authors create fics, which artists then claim and produce art for). This year the event will officially run from January through May 2016, but we know some artists like to get started early, so here are some important dates to remember:
Earliest Art Submission Acceptance: Friday, January 1, 2016
Art Submission Deadline: Tuesday, February 23rd, 11:59pm PST
(art will be available for viewing a minimum of 24 hours before claims begin)
Author Claims: Saturday, February 27th
(to take place on livejournal, first-come first-served, initially 1 claim per author)
Posting Date Claims: Saturday, April 23rd
(via Doodle, limit of 2 teams per posting date, first-come first-served)
Posting Begins: Saturday, April 30th
This year’s mods are
runningondreams,
iloome, @goddramit and @viennasunrise and we’re all very excited to get started. Keep an eye out for inspiration posts and check-in chats in the next few weeks. Questions? See the rules below or send us an email at cap.im.events@gmail.com.
Basic Rules and Guidelines:
1. Art and fic must focus on Steve and Tony in some way! The end goal does not have to be a romantic one, but Steve and Tony and their relationship (shippy or gen) should be central to any work produced.
2. All participating art must be submitted to cap.im.events@gmail.com by the art deadline. Art does not need to be finished, but characters should be recognizable without labels. It should include a universe label or be labeled “ambiguous”. New this year: If there are specific story elements you do NOT want to see in your partnered fic (major squicks and triggers) please tell the mods in your submission email so that we can include that information up front.
3. Art should be original work and should not have been previously posted anywhere. Similarly, as this is a collaborative event, art created for this event should not be posted for commercial sale until six months after the event has ended.
4. Artists should keep their identities as secret as possible from the larger community. Art posted for claims will not include artist names and should remain anonymous to all but the paired author(s).
5. Traditional and digital art are both acceptable for art submissions. Art entries may include more than one piece of art, but the art must all fit together into the same story.
6. Manips and fanmixes/fanmix covers will not be accepted for art submissions.
7. Each creator may submit a total of two distinct works to the event (in any combination of art and fic).
8. Fic written for this event must exceed 5,000 words in length.
Authors and artists who have failed to complete a previous challenge will not be allowed to participate in this event unless a full year has passed, they complete the original challenge or they demonstrate equivalent ability. If you have questions or concerns about banning in our events, please email the general mods at cap.im.mod@gmail.com.
