Rear Window Room Competition

Rear Window Room Competition

What do you see out your window?

Alfred Hitchcock, one of the greatest filmmakers of all time, was the master of suspense. In one of his classics, Rear Window, Photojournalist "Jeff" Jeffries is confined to a wheelchair with a broken leg, and the entire story takes place in the courtyard adjoining the rear of his apartment, all events being seen through his eyes. Jeff believes that a murder has been committed by his neighbor Thorwald and sends his girlfriend Lisa and his nurse Stella to investigate. (plot summary from IMBD).

Fascinating! Do you see where we're going with this? I bet you do. To add a little fresh excitement to the typical room competition. In fact, you don't even have to build a room. I want you to dig deeper into your imaginations and come up with a story to go with a room screenshot.

I don't get it. What do you mean, Loderse? Well, I'm gonna tell ya. Let's say you have a room with goth furniture. You could submit a story about being held captive in Dracula's castle. I know, real original. Get the idea? Right...

I will be selecting a few of my favorites from each landscape category.

[size=large]The Rules[/size]
* There must use a landscape in the room submitted.
* The story must match the theme of the room (100-150 words).
* Habbos can be part of the story.
* You can work in teams, meaning 1 person owns the room and 1 person writes the story. But, if you are a winner, it will be up to you to divide the prize how you see fit. Meaning, only 1 set of prize(s) per winning submission.

Deadline to submit: September 22, 2008. Voting will start a few days after that.

How to submit: Submit your screenshot and story by email to competitionsDOTus@sulakeDOTcom
Subject line: Include landscape used and story name
Email must include: Screenshot of room, story (including title) and your Habbo name

* Each winner (the writer) will receive a RARE typewriter.
* Permanent fame on the official Landscapes group page.

Good luck!
