Podfic Big Bang 2020-2021
Welcome to Podfic Big Bang 2020-2021! Well...itâs been a year, hasnât it? Sorry for starting things up so late, but with the...everything, and us new mods starting, it took a while to get going! But, Kitsune Heart and AnnabellaLocked are ready to go, and weâre looking forward to helping you all make some truly epic podfics!
What is the Podfic Big Bang?
The Podfic Big Bang encourages participants to make podfics of epic length; 10,000 words or more (more! MORE! MOAR!). Tiny podfics are nice, but sometimes you want something that is just going to suck you in for a day, a week, a month! The 2020-2021 Podfic Big Bang will run from today, September the 6th, until February 27th, 2021, with all fics being revealed on February 28th, 2021.
Sign up here, starting now!
We recommend you join the
. There are multiple discussion channels, including one just for project and fest discussions, which is where you can keep in touch with one-another outside of check-ins!
Minimum length: 10,000 words
You may submit as many qualifying works as you wish (for those podfic robots out there).
Collaboration is okay, but please specify that you are on a team in the sign-up post, and who you will be working with (in the âAnything you think we should know?â section).
A multi-part series that adds up to 10,000 or more words is acceptable, but each part posted for PBB must not have been posted before.
So, if youâve posted part 1 of a series, you can do parts 2+ for PBB, but part 1 does NOT count towards the word total.
Announcement and sign-ups begin: September 6th, 2020
Check-in #1: October 10th, 2020
Check-in #2: November 11th, 2020
Check-in #3: December 19th, 2020
Art sign-ups: December 19th, 2020
Check-in #4: January 23rd, 2021
Art due: January 15th, 2020:
Collection opens: February 1st, 2020
Collection closes: February 27th, 2020
Collection revealed: February 28th, 2020
Along the way, weâll have 4 check-ins. Each check-in and the final posting date are spaced 5 weeks apart, across the 25 week PBB season, so when you get to the next check-in, youâll know you should be about 1/5th done.
Along with check-in #3 (December 19th, 2020), weâll be asking who wants cover art, as well as making posts around the podficcer spaces asking for art volunteers. You can also make your own cover art, collaborate with another participant to exchange cover art, or opt for no art at all.
An AO3 collection for Podfic Big Bang 2020-2021 will be opened on February 1st, 2020. This will be an open, unrevealed collection, until closing on February 27th, 2021. (If itâs still the 27th somewhere, youâre good!) On February 28th, the collection will be revealed with a BANG!
