Editing Tweek x Craig (section)

==Behind The Scenes==
===Where Did The Idea Come From===
Tweek x Craig, also known as Creek, is a popular "ship" (a romantic pairing of characters) in the ''South Park'' Yaoi/Slash community. Fans within this community often create fanfiction or fan art depicting their 'ship' in romantic contexts, usually as teenagers or young adults. These depictions are controversial among ''South Park'' fans.

The day before the episode was announced, South Park Studios [http://southpark.cc.com/blog/2015/10/25/south-park-wants-your-yaoi-fan-art asked fans] to submit their Yaoi fan art for inclusion in the show, setting off speculation over the then-unannounced upcoming episode.

In the episode description released the Monday before air it was mentioned [[Mr. Mackey]] was supposed to hunt down whoever started the rumor. This scene/plot was not included in the final episode, and Mackey only appears brifly behind [[PC Principal]] in a cameo role, however. An animatic of one of these scenes was released on [https://instagram.com/p/9mpyMbJPzm/?taken-by=thesouthparkers Instagram] by Trey's wife, Boogie.

===Fan Artists===
Matt and Trey [http://southpark.cc.com/blog/2015/10/25/south-park-wants-your-yaoi-fan-art solicited real Yaoi art] from South Park fans the week before the episode aired, which was in turn processed by the administrators of South Park Studios here (over 1,500 pieces of art!) and finally contained in the episode itself, along with a 'thank you' to all of the fans who contributed.

Here's some of the awesome artwork chosen for the final product:

The [http://stuckinfourthgrade.tumblr.com/post/132628467695/it-seems-like-this-will-come-as-a-surprise-to-the South Park storyboard team] also created a lot of the art used in the episode, particularly the second half after Tweek and Craig's messy public break-up. They also filmed the cosplay video for the show!
