Kimmystan: Nordfjord - Alteus: Wyverncliff |  Kimmystan  Alteus
|
KTV, BovineTV | 1st round (2nd) | |
|
Kimmystan and Alteus will apply for a joint bid to host the OSC 25 Congratulations! The broadcasters responsible for the hosting will be BovineTV and KTV, this cooperation between these nations is a result of the the success they have achieved in OSC and ISC! The broadcasters have a good amount of experience with hosting the various event in Internatia and Outernatia! Kimmystan is the country that have hosted the most editions of OSC, while Alteus have hosted the contest 2 times. The host cities will therefor be Nordfjord, Kimmystan and Wyverncliff, Alteus due to the successful hostings in these cities in the past. The motto of this edition is #GetALife and the theme is Nintendo related! We came up with this idea after we counted how many hostings we had and we decided that we had to get a life ;;;; And we both love Nintendo of course!

Pomar | Laranjeiras
|
EEL | 1st round (3rd) | |
|
After some preliminary talks between the laranjeiran government, OBU and the laranjeiran public broadcaster EEL, finally we could makea bid to host the first OSC Congratulations show. All the capitals submitted a bid, but only Pomar offered enough structure to make the show without major problems. At Pomar, several venues offered to host the show, but after further analysis, the Pomar's Opera House were the venue that has been chosen since it offered a good acoustic, it's easy to reach by all the transports available at Pomar (taxi, bus and metro) and it's big enough to comport 150,000 viewers with ease. The logo was made by the king, who said that "knew how to play with Photoshop". According to him, at it's a congratulation event, we all should celebrate non-stop, right? So, he came with the theme "Time to celebrate!" that became the motto. The logo is composed with a clock wich the pointers suggest that it's celebrate time, enforcing the idea of the motto. I hope you all like it and the images you can see in the following pages of that document. Sincerely, Victor Ramsés - King of Laranjeiras and President of EEL
