Hi Julia,

I hope all is well :>)

This is definitely one of the favorite themes that I've seen on here so far. I just wish I could recycle old footage/ enter an 'old' project for it.

I know this video doesn't fit the rules though but that doesn't stop me from posting it here.

FYI: This was part of a short lived project that I worked on late 2015/ early 2016. The project was called Hidden Humanoids and - as my current project - a long distance collaboration.

Without further ado:

Here's Dracusa!

Awesome! Unofficial entries are always welcome :) I love how this video has art within art, is it part of a series? If so I would love to see the rest, thank you for showing me this :)

It was part of a series that died an early creative death, after 6 or 7 episodes. If you watch it on youtube, you can find the remaining vids by clicking on the 'Hidden Humanoids' channel that this video is posted from.

FYI: After receiving a first, somewhat artsy video about 'Drausa' with a lot of talking, I asked the actor ( who was almost 80 years old at the time ) to send us a video where he's drawing the creature that he describes. I loved the result! It was hard to direct him from a distance, though, and - back then - my filmmaking buddy Ted and I were probably too controlling and impatient to give the man the creative freedom that he needed.

Oh, creative take on the theme, i like that it's unexpected :)

Yep very creative I absolutely don’t thought this way 😲

Awesome. I am no artist but I can't wait to see what others come up with for this challenge! 😎

I can't help but think of X-Men everytime the word mutation is uttered. But I'm curious what other people would come up with this theme :D.

This Week's theme will be interesting! I wish the participants good luck :)

Awesome thanks hypexals :D

Hello @Juliakponsford, I have a doubt, due to the call of attention on the original art. I want to know if the fan-art is acceptable to be one of the winners.

Hello, yes fan art of a character is okay as long as you make an original drawing/composition and don't copy any existing artwork :).

Keeping my eye on this will be a fun one.:)

no se donde darle resteeming :'(

It's okay the resteem is not at all mandatory, just appreciated !

Awesome, thank you Juan for another great entry!

Thank you! I'm happy to compete again;)

LOL this one is surprising, thanks for the entry!
