New Video - Cats and Netflix: 2020!!

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9IuZnfbwKE  Hey friends! Doubleclicks here!SO MANY of you have asked us for a new version of Cats and Netflix about the Quarantine. So we've done it. 

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!

UPDATE: submissions are closed and the video is done! Watch it on YouTube!

The deadline is Monday, March 23 at 5pm Pacific time/8pm Eastern. It's a very fast turnaround!

---

We need videos of YOU taking advantage of this weird time, dancing around, hanging out with your cats, dancing while playing animal crossing, hand washing, looking out the window -

Take some inspiration from the video for our song Jam! 

More details & logistics are below! Thank you!

THANK YOU! Love, Laser & Aubrey

How to Submit!:

1. Read the logistical notes below!
2. Make a video! You can take inspiration from our new lyrics, and from the original video! We also need your own ideas!! Dancing is great, cats are great, funny is great!
3. Take a 7-15 second video & send it to us to: doubleaclick@gmail.com (yes, that is doubleAclick@gmail.com, not a typo.) Keep the video short and sweet!
4. 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! And keeping the camera still is a good idea too.
• 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/drive please send us a link to the FILE, not the FOLDER, that makes it easier!! Make sure it’s got open permissions so we don't have to request access.
• 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!
• 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.
• If you're acting out a particular line of the song, let us know!
