Hi guys! So I already posted this in Stories but my friend has advised me that I put it up in forums to put it in view for longer, and I never knew we even had a forum!
So heres whats happening:
I run gwaypositivity. Its basically a tumblr where we say nice things about Gerard Way, share stories on how Gerard affects and inspires us, things we like about Gerard, yatta yatta. If you're familiar with my writing, there is a good amount of irony in me running a blog dedicated to being nice to him, but that's beside the point. If you're curious, you can check us out here: http://gwaypositivity.tumblr.com/
Currently, we're trying to do a yearly thing we're going to call the Positivity Project. And for this year, we're going to do a simple little video where we each quickly answer the question:
Why do you like/love/respect Gerard Way?
Currently the video is supposed to be just real short, nothing too fancy. But I've promised my followers and will promise you that I will do my hardest to personally hand this to Gerard the next time I meet him. Which is mostly the reason I think people are even agreeing to this haha. And I have met him several times before, and have had plenty of chances to meet him not that long ago, but I never went this year due to laziness. But anything in Los Angeles is like 30 minutes away from my house, and I have a car and everything, so the likelihood of me being able to meet Gerard within the next year or two is pretty high. As long as he remains active, granted.
So some ways you can submit and be a part of this are:
Record yourself briefly talking about why you like Gerard or take a picture of yourself holding up a sign that says why you like Gerard or however the hell you want to do it, I don't really care. Be as creative as you want to be.
And then send your video or picture to me at the email address: myrenmczombie@gmail.com
If you're like me and have no clue to send webcam videos to an email address (although more people have submitted to the project this way, I just have no clue how to do it), I've set up an account on eyejot. How eyejot works, is you would follow this linkhttp://www.eyejot.com/join and then register an email. Just like with any website, don't give them more information than you have to.
You should then arrive at a page where you can record messages. You would have to let it have all the proper accesses to your microphone and camera. Go to compose new message. I was told that it won't let you record past 1 minute for free users, but I somehow got one submission that was 2 minutes long, so I don't know how that works. Worst comes to worst, you could send me a continuation video.
Once you're done recording your message, find where it says "recipients". Then enter in: myrenmczombie@gmail.com.
And that's it. Let me know if you have any questions about it or trouble doing it, I ran a lot of tests on it myself so I think I've figured it out pretty alright.
The deadline for submissions is November 14th, 2014.
Alright you guys, hope to hear from you. And I'll have new writing up soon!
