2 7 88c 94a 77a ÌÊ Oscars - The concrete planË ------------------------------------ ÈBy ÊKingpin / OffenceÈ Before you could read this " Think if we could have an Oscar ". RAW goes one step further and tell you Ê" How to ÌREALIZEË The Oscar Idea" This idea was first published in Zine #11. So some credit must go to Chester / BRS for thinking of this smashing idea. É (which was very orginal !?!? -ED)È The idea is quite simple ; why not have a scene Oscar? Lets give some credit to the past year's coders, graphicians, musicians etc. whom have done such masterpieces on the computer we all love. Well, this Idea have do be turned into reality before itdies,ÌRAW Ëwill now set up a plan. ÌÊ1.ËÈ Get a really cool name!!! Don't use OSCARS!! Use something like 'The Golden disc' awards or something like that. Try to find something orginal. ÌÊ2.ÈË Get the leading magazines' main editors to cast some votes on who they think are the best people for the prize. ÊÌ3.ÈË Release a 'nomination intro'. Telling the scene which people have been nominated in each category. There should only be 5 nominees in catagory. (like the REAL Oscars!) ÊÌ4.ÈË Arrange a party, but arrange it in Scandinavia!!! There will be more people that way. (And thats a FACT!!!) ÊÌ5.ÈË At the party (which should be held at the end of the year!) collect about 2-5% of the ticket money to buy some Oscars, nothing with 10 carat gold. Just some ORIGINAL trophies!! ÊÌ6.ÈË The catagories should contain: Ê- Best coder (of the year) - Best musician (of the year) - Best graphician (of the year) - Best demo group (of the year) - Best demo (of the year) È Besides these main catagories there should also include a 'Legend Award' which would go to a person who has influenced the scene in positive way! If you want to get really involved you could add these catagories: Ê - Best newcomer group - Best newcomer person È There are lots of things to give awards for. (best one-part demos, best trackmo, etc.) ÊÌ7.ÈË The presentation should look REALLY professional. There should be a host (who can talk ENGLISH!), envelopes and the lot! Show what the different persons have done (e.g. music, demo etc.!) on a big screen! The best time for this would be on the first day party. With that I end my suggestions. But think of this : what if Anarchy- Silents-Crystal had such awards, wouldn't it just have been the BEST party ever organized (hint, hint!) So to all you people out there (especially Trix, Paleface etc.) when you think of the next ÉMEGA Èparty (like x-mas '91) please consider having some scene oscars!!! It would work, just think about the EuroCharts!!!!!! That was the plan, the only thing left is the organisation. If some will arrange a party in Denmark at X-mas and want a Oscar Award we in RAW will help you if you want it! ÊJust contact us! ÿ
