Welcome to Mockingjay.net, the most visited source on the web dedicated to the Hunger Games! We were founded in July of 2009, before the title of the third book had been announced. We're here to have fun with other Hunger Games fans with discussion, contests, the Jabberjays podcast, and an up to date news blog that covers anything related to the books or the upcoming film that is being made by Lionsgate.
‘Tick Tock’ – A Hunger Games Music Video Parody Contest

“Tick Tock.” - Catching Fire




Yes we are aware this is a very silly song, (Tik Tok – Kesha) but it’s catchy and we thought it would be fun to organize a contest! After the amazing success of our Rue’s Lullaby, we want to do a fan created music video. We thought it could be awesome if lyrics were submitted and we compiled a song and I sang it, but it could also be awesome if you guys submitted recordings of your own. However, we don’t want to plan on doing a mashup if you guys aren’t comfortable singing/don’t have a good microphone. We would only be able to use high quality recordings without static. We wouldn’t want to plan on a mashup and get no entries at all! Let us know if it should be a mashup singing contest where you sing, or a lyric submission where I sing. The second part of the contest would involve you guys submitting video clips for the music video. Prizes would include mockingjay pins, shirts, and more!

Souds like a lot of fun! I’d sing, but I don’t have a good microphone. :/ Still, can’t wait to see where this goes!

I’ll totally sing! If I had a good microphone, and I can figure out some lyrics. Is it okay if I send you audio files from my camera? It’s not too bad quality, I guess I’ll see.

This sounds seriously awesome! I would love to do the lyric submission thing. Not that I don’t want to sing, but my microphone is extremely ILLEGALLY terrible :] And about the music video thing: Should it include footage of me/footage shot by me, or can it be a compilation of other clips? Anyway, it would be cooler if we didn’t need to submit footage of ourselves.

I don’t know why I didn’t think of this earlier, but maybe for a later contest we could rewrite the lyrics of Eminem’s Mockingbird to our own Mockingjay.

Our version is going to be called ‘Tick Tock’ since that’s what the quote is in ‘Catching Fire.’

Kimmy, I do have one question. Do you want us to start sending in lyrics now, or should we wait for the all clear? I hear that some people are already sending theirs in.
