The Touhou One-Week Video Jam Is On! Submissions Open November 7
Make a Touhou video in just one week! Entries will be featured on "Touhou Station."
What Is the Touhou One-Week Video Jam?
The Touhou One-Week Video Jam is an open video-making event that runs for one week!
A video jam is a game jam, but for videos! Within a time limit, you come up with an idea, shoot it, edit it, and finish one video, solo or as a team. Anyone can join, as long as you finish a Touhou video that fits the themes and post it within the submission period!
Any kind of Touhou video is welcome: hand-drawn animation, Let’s Plays, event reports, travel videos, explainers, time-lapses, cosplay, music videos for arrangements, MMD, and more. Videos can be 5 to 180 seconds long, and landscape, vertical, and Shorts are all OK. Shooting and editing everything on your phone is fine too!
The Touhou One-Week Video Jam team will watch as many of the submitted videos as possible. We’ll pick a few of them and watch them together with our guests on “Touhou Station” at the end of November!
Once you’ve posted your video, please share it on X with “#東方一週間動画ジャム” and help spread the word!
