Hey friends! Doubleclicks here!We are releasing a new video EVERY WEEK (starting May 10 with Panic, which is on Paste now!!) and we want you to be in one!!!
We’re making a NEW internet-made collage video (like Jam, Friday I’m In Love, Wonder, and Wrong About Gender), and we need some friends to help. If you’d like to participate, this post has all the details!
The deadline is Sunday, June 23 at 6pm Pacific time/9pm Eastern.
We need videos of you (and friends, family, pets, stuffed animals) — dancing, choosing, and/or refusing .The theme of the video is "no" - how do you say "no" (to anything) in a fun and positive way? The theme of this song is "no isn't negative, it's selective." When you say no to one thing, you say yes to something else! When you say no to waffles, you say yes to pancakes. When you say no to windows, you say yes to doors. You get it!!
SO: we want a video of you saying no to one thing (a cup of coffee? a piano?) and yes to something else (a coloring page? a cat?)
This is for a new song on our album called "I Don't Wanna." We wanna make "no" fun! And that's what this video is all about!
Take some inspiration from the video for our song Jam!
More details & logistics are below! Thank you!
The deadline is Sunday, May 19 at 6pm Pacific time/9pm Eastern.
THANK YOU! Love, Laser & Aubrey
How to Submit!:
- Read the logistical notes below!
- DANCE/make a video where you choose/refuse/select! This is the song! we want a video of you saying no to one thing (a cup of coffee? a piano?) and yes to something else (a coloring page? a cat?)
- Take a 7-15 second video & send it to us, via google drive or dropbox, to: doubleaclick@gmail.com. Keep the video short and sweet!
- Fill out this form to give us your name and permission: https://forms.gle/PxzStYSi3oBoPXjW8
LOGISTICAL NOTES:
- Please do not sing along or mouth or say any words, that will make it harder to get you into the video.
- MOST IMPORTANT ONE: Please turn your phone sideways! You can film this video with a camera, a phone, whatever (high quality is great within reason)—but PLEASE make sure it’s horizontal, like a movie, not vertical, like a selfie. Example: http://www.thedoubleclicks.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/iphonetutorial.jpg
- Look for the best possible lighting—brighter is better!
- Acceptable formats: 3GP, AVI, MP4 and Quicktime. And don’t make the final over 2 gigs, my computer is small.
- If you’re using dropbox, please send us a link to the FILE, not the FOLDER, that makes it easier!! Make sure it’s got open permissions.
- Don’t take a video of someone who doesn’t know what’s happening! Please! Don’t rope your reluctant sister into it or something. That makes everyone feel weird! Dance your own beautiful self! (Or get your baby or dog to do it, that’s just adorable.)
- Don’t send us multiple takes or options, just pick your favorite for each person/group! We trust your judgment!
- If you want to submit art or animation that’s totally awesome!
- Tips: The more you move around, the better! Get up off your couch and stand in your kitchen, your lawn, the local park, the mall, the city hall. We do want the video to be positive, so please don't put political or depressing messages in it. Those are super important but not what this video is about.
- Ideally, we'd love to see videos of you doing the things you love to do! When you say "no" to something you don't like, that means you get to say "yes" to something that you DO! So say no to a bike and say yes to roller blades! you get it!
