This way, anybody who comes across this studio and is interested in what we do doesn't have to sit around for a long time while waiting for auditions to open. See the projects we have already created as a studio here: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpp6Qor_2208sWlmJtxZ_u4V1P2aIzYQ6
ok let me break down the additional information you may need with each part of the form
Username: - I'd appreciate if you also include a channel link next to your username but you don't have to
Nickname: -Keep in mind that I will refer to you with whatever you enter in this part of the form unless you tell me otherwise after your form
Pronouns: - Let's just get it out of the way now so you aren't one of those editors who I thought was a different gender for a long time until you or one of my friends tell me otherwise (cough cough Zanderson)
Program(s): - If you combine different programs in your videos, that's fine, but if you use different programs presently between videos, show me a sample of each (if you edit with sv sometimes and ae at other times for example) when you get to recommended auditions or make sure it's clarified which program is which in your videos - Indefinite auditions are not going anywhere, so if you want to audition and you're about to switch programs, just step back and wait until you have plenty of experience with your new program because transitioning between programs is rarely a high quality point in anyone's editing career and there's no point in judging you by the editing you have now if you're only going to change programs - If you get into the studio and have to change programs, either edit for the studio with your old program and switch to the new program once you've transitioned into your new program or take time off from joining studio MEPs to adjust
Recommended Audition Video (not required): - I'd prefer collections of recent edits over a recent AMV or something - If you send an older than one month video I'm going to stalk your channel as if you didn't send anything haha - If you don't have any edits recent enough for me to judge you, I won't reject you, but I will ask if you have any recent edits that you've been hiding haha
Top Rep Characters (mention the fandom they're from): - Just in case we need them for anything haha - Only three reps per fandom please - Taken reps: Honoka Maki (Kiznaiver), Kotori Minami (Love Live!), Cait (Fallout 4), Akane Kurashiki (Zero Escape), Noel (Sound Horizon), Nagito Komaeda (SDR2), Sayaka Miki (Madoka Magica), Lillie (Pokemon SUMO), Kaori (Your Lie in April), Henry (Fire Emblem: Awakening), Sans (Undertale), Haise Sasaki (Tokyo Ghoul), Namine (Kindgom Hearts), Roxas (Kingdom Hearts), Rikka Takanashi (Chuunibyou), Karma Akabane (Assassination Classroom), Feferi (Homestuck), Genji (Overwatch)
Skype Username (not required): -Skype isn't essential for communication, but it's extremely convenient to use Skype for studio communication -If you don't have a Skype account, make sure to check your messages frequently. Even though sometimes I send messages out of nowhere, I usually send them on dates I've already made significant in the little schedules I make
Password: -I'm making the passsword "happy birthday em" even though it won't be em's birthday for the entire year haha

Joining this MEP doesn't require being an auditioner, but if you make it into this MEP, you're perfectly capable of getting into SMS if you fill out the form in the description of this video: youtube.com/watch?v=FRev-z2mQOA
Deadline: February 24th
Now for some rules: 1. I'm keeping a one part limit so that any SMS hopefuls can join as well as some SMS members. 2. Leave one second after your part or use a different form of transition at the end that isn’t greenscreen (ex. fade to black). 3. Please use characters that fit or at least seem like they fit. Speaking of characters, don’t cross-over franchises (don’t ask for Sayaka Maizono from Dangan Ronpa x Jasper from Steven Universe or anything like that p l e a s e) 4. If you can’t find a transition for the start of your part that would come out smoothly, don’t use a transition for the start of your part at all. If you want to start out zoomed in and zoom out as you start your part, I personally use that often (I’ll keyframe a nice transition that way yes). 5. Black bars that aren't for an effect are just not okay. 6. Don't cut audio yourself because I know some people cut audio by ear and I don't want to risk that. 7. Meet the deadline if you can. I will give out extensions, but if you need five thousand extensions, I'll eventually just give your part to a backup editor. If you have to drop out for any reason, drop out as soon as you can so I have more time to find someone else to fill that part. 8. The theme that you should follow: The contrast between the way a bubbly character looks on the outside and the dark reality within their mind or their situation in general if that makes sense (I recommend using light to moderate psychedelic editing to get this point across). There's no particular color palette, but color the external appearance of the character brightly while coloring their dark reality darker and duller. You can use characters that actually have this contrast in their storyline or you can put a twist on a brighter fandom, which is something I don't usually allow rip 9. Fandoms can be used twice. I usually count a fandom and its sequel separate whenever I only allow fandoms to be repeated once, but I don't want four parts from the same set of media so 10. Use typography with the correct lyrics. You can use quotes for instrumental sections of this MEP if you'd like. (BTW I ask for nicknames in the form because putting member nicknames in signups haha)
Parts: 0 - SorrowfulMelodyStudio // Powerful Overlord 1- 2- 3- 4- 5- 6- 7- 8- 9- 10- 11- 12- 13- 14- 15- 16- 17- 18- 0- SorrowfulMelodyStudio // Powerful Overlord (The password is any word that starts with the same letter as your username)

There may eventually be links to other secret santas in the description for late videos.
Messages:

to Tama, from Nicole: hey!! Merry (late) Christmas!! I'm currently working on a video for you so don't worry ;; apologies it's late and not included here but I'm putting as much effort as I can into it for you /// hope you had/have happy holidays and enjoy the new year! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

We are a studio that edits with songs categorized as dark and/or depressing. We are not going to confirm how many members we are looking for in case we end up needing more members than originally planned. You can see examples of the kinds of projects we make here: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpp6Qor_2208sWlmJtxZ_u4V1P2aIzYQ6
Now for some rules rip: 1. Even though there is a spot in the form for program, having an amateur program won't automatically keep you out of the studio and having a professional program won't automatically keep you in the studio. 2. For audition videos, I'm going to choose a recent video that I think is your best work that matches the studio's theme. If you have a recent video that you made that you want to recommend, leave it in the form. (Don't worry if I choose a video for you, I'm judging independently so if you don't like the video I put in the playlist, I'm the only one who will be judging you for it in SMS) 3. !!IF YOU ARE ABOUT TO SWITCH PROGRAMS, DON'T AUDITION!! If you recently switched over to a new program and have adjusted to it, I'm alright with that, but don't put in your form for program "iMovie but I'm about to get FCPX" because I can't predict what your editing will look like after you switch programs so I can't know whether I want your editing in the studio. 4. There is a Skype chat (if there are other editors in the chat that you would rather not be around, let me know and I will Skype PM you news), so Skype is recommended, but it's not mandatory. However, whether you have Skype or not, please try to check YouTube PMs regularly. 5. People who used to be in SMS are allowed to audition again, but they aren't guaranteed acceptance. 6. For MEPs, use fandoms with a widespread canon storyline and characters and fandoms that fit the theme of the studio. I don't want fandoms like Animal Jam, LPS, MovieStarPlanet, or upbeat media like Uncle Grandpa. 7. I don't want rep characters to be repeated and I only want three rep characters from one fandom at a time. 8. I won't publicly be keeping note of all auditions, but if your audition form gets a response, I've recorded your audition information somewhere. 9. If the auditions end up being open for a long time, I will send out comments on top of the initial reply, and if you don't at least respond to the most recent one, you will be disqualified from auditioning for SMS so stay on top of that. 10. More could be added to these rules as time goes on. 11. The password is the greatest number of AMVs and/or MEP parts you've ever had to use one song for (Ex. I've edited with Mad Hatter by Melanie Martinez 3 times).

SMS wishes everyone merry yet angsty holidays! (om this is problematic)
So I learned a lot about how to improve on ACSS from this. So in case anyone weren't able to edit or they just wanted to leave a message and a video, they were able to leave messages in the description here.
To Em, From Nicole: Happy Christmas!! I know we don't talk much but I still wish you a happy day! I hope you enjoy the gift + I'm not in the RWBY fandom so I'm sorry if the art I used doesn't match the song lyrics, but I tried xD Anyways I hope you enjoy the holiday!
To Vero, From Ava: Vero I know thsi is really bad but MERRY DANK MEME-MAS! I remember I drew your name and I was just sitting there like "is this fate"
To Karin, From Nikki: Merry Christmas Karin!

To Ace, From Mari: Hii Acee, I'm sorry I couldn't make your video cri. I had to do alot of chores over the break because of family coming over for chrostmas. I hope you have a good Chrostmas and you get nice gifts and I hope you get to drink alot of eggnig (if you like eggnug). Have a good holidayy fam.
To Patty, From Miranda: Hey Patty! I truthfully don’t know you all too well, but the few times we’ve talked you’ve been super nice and accepting. I was super happy to get you for the secret santa, because you were one of the people I looked up to when I started editing. I want to also apologize for it being too short, I had so many other things to do and I just couldn’t complete it. I really hope you enjoyed it, and I hope we can talk again sometime! Oh, and happy holidays! –Miranda
So if you have any questions about fandoms or songs used in any of the ACSS things, leave your question in the description and hope that someone who knows the answer gets back to you. Also, if you have any song requests for SMS MEPs, leave those in the comments too ahahA. (Unless you're a member/co-leader, bc you can just message me about it) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

(My Rep is Homura Akemi from PMMM, so that's taken too) Rules: 1. Program will not impact whether you make it in, but how you use it will. Somebody who uses iMovie really well has a higher chance of getting in than somebody who uses AE not as well (This is just an example btw, no saltiness rn). 2. For audition videos, I'm going to choose what I feel is best from your channel. If you have a recommended one, put it in the form. 3. For god's sake, don't audition if you're right about to switch programs. 4. PLEASE have Skype or Instagram. 5. Don't ask me for co-leader or graphic designer. There are already three co-leaders (Jazz/kittyangel44, Purple/PurplieTV, and Kara/Editor Chan) and the four of us can handle graphic designing. 6. Use fandoms with widespread canon characters (pokemon is the only exception). I don't want anything like Animal Jam, LPS, or MovieStarPlanet. 7. Use fandoms that can actually be SAD and MEANINGFUL (Nothing like Uncle Grandpa please). 8. Rep characters can't repeat. No more than three rep characters can come from the same fandom. 9. Please be active and nice to the rest of the studio. If you act bratty in the studio, you will get kicked out. 10. DO NOT ASK FOR A DANGAN RONPA REP. I'm talking about the whole franchise. Jazz has taken Junko Enoshima, Purple has taken Sayaka Maizono, and Kara has taken Chiaki Nanami. We don't need more than three Dangan Ronpa characters in this studio. 11. I'm gonna add on to these rules as I go most likely so keep an eye out for that. 12. Password is "Spooky Scary Skreetons"
Form: Username: Nickname: Program(s): Recommended Audition Video (not required): Top Rep Characters (Please say which fandom they're from jfc): Skype and/or Instagram: Password:

UPDATE: The fandoms that the rep characters are from have been removed for length reasons. I will refer to comments again to remember which fandom your reps are from so dont delete your comment or forget to include the fandoms of your reps.
