Monster Mashed Competiton
Fantastic competition this is.
If you've ever fancied yourself as the next creator of a Dalek - this is the place to start. The cool people at ARM are going to be at Mashed, and as you'll have seen from the last post, there'll be loads of electronic gear on hand - so what's stopping you actually building a full size, fully working, Mashed Monster?
Here's the comp' - before next Wednesday (18th - midnight) email me - matthew.cashmore@bbc.co.uk - your idea for the next ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Sci-Fi Monster that you could build over 24 hours actually at Alexandra Palace - and then present for the audience on the Sunday. We'll choose two ideas and fund (up to £500) you to build them.
That's it - we'll pay you to build a full size, fully working sci-fi monster to present at Mashed.
How cool is that?
We're going to fund two monsters and we'll ask the audience to vote on which is best at Mashed itself - no prize there - it's just for the fun of it - and the glory of course!
We'll be looking for ultimate killing potential, how well it can deal with stairs, and how scary the over-all effect is. Extra credit for not breaking copyright on existing monsters and not mentioning Dr Who at all.
The legal bit.....
