ELIMINATION ROUND #1


I welcome all Finalists to the first Elimination Round of HDC Idol. From here on, each round will result in the elimination of ONE of you until we reach the Final 3, who will advance on to the Grand Finale stage of HDC Idol.

Your first Challenge is a very arduous and tough task, so I wish you all the very best and hope you raise your own levels to meet it.

All 10 of you are grouped into 5 groups, and will be given ONE common Challenge each. The catch here is to frame your answer in such a way that its superior than the other one who is answering the same Challenge. Grades will be given out accordingly, and the worst Grader will be out of HDC Idol.

Point to Note :- If you do not answer your challenge within the stipulated time, you are automatically eliminated from HDC Idol.

Which means, we may have more than one Finalist eliminated in Elimination Round #1 itself. Of course, the fittest will survive and continue on.


Here are your groupings and your challenges...


- ChronoGrl and Papillon Noir - Orson Welles' War of the Worlds was a huge radio hit. Choose a horror novel of your choice and turn it into a radio masterpiece.

- Roshiq and Cactus - You are a fresh indie movie director who dreams of making it big. Do you have what it takes to be the next big thing in horror?

- FerretChucker and Disease - You have been paid handsomely to write a werewolf story as your next novel. Any ideas ticking around in your brain for this?

- Alkytrio666 and Bloodrayne - Write a horror script centered around the legend of Davy Jones' Locker.

- Bwind22 and The Flayed One - As a mainstream commercial director, put forth your visualisation of a theme for a possible horror flick on the whole OK Corral Gunfight incident.



You have 48 Hours to do your research and post your entries (either on here or in a PM to me). Failure to do so WILL result in elimination. Also, be mindful of the fact that someone else is ALSO doing the same pitch, so you have to be one step ahead of him/her.

Best of Luck!!
