Chris Colfer's Birthday video: “This is me..thanks to you!”

New project for Chris’ 28th Birthday!!!

Chris inspires so many of us, he makes us dream and smile with his books and his kindness. I'm sure he changed our lives and who we are in a way. It can be something big or something small, but he did change us for the better.

So, this is what this year's video will be about, inspired but the beautiful song “This is me” from The Greatest Showman. The way Chris changed us and made us better, whether it's our personality or our life.

PART 1

I want you to send either a video or a picture telling him BRIEFLY how he changed you, how he inspired you. It has to be just one sentence: “I am stronger because of you” “you changed the way I feel about..” “I met so many friends thanks to you” “I had the courage to start acting/singing/writing because of you”. As usual you can make it more special by adding his books, dressing up, whatever you prefer. Be honest, make it personal, make it SPECIAL. Lets show him the difference he has made and keeps making. You can film yourself, or write the sentence down on a cardboard and take a pic

WISH HIM A HAPPY BIRTHDAY AT THE END!

I will add the tag #thisisme on every video/pic.

TIPS: -If you take a video, try to go outside, vids taken inside are always very dark. -If you take a pic, REMEMBER TO BE IN GOOD LIGHT AND WRITE VERY BIG, thick, dark letters on a lighter background. Pics are often very dark and hard to read. Prefer pics made with the back camera instead of selfies!

PART 2 *optional (for those who want to do more):

I want to put together the “This is me” song during the video (if enough people are participating), not necessarily singing it, just the lyrics, so if you feel like it, ask me to give you a line from the song you will have to either read on video, sing, or write the line on a cardboard and take a pic of it.

You have to send me your name/nickname, AGE and country of origin, plus the video or picture to  mylifeisathread@gmail.com 

If it's a pic, send it attached to the email If it's a video: -upload it on WETRANSFER and send the link generated to mylifeisathread@gmail.com OR -upload your video on youtube (as NOT LISTED) and send me the link at mylifeisathread@gmail.com Don't send videos as files attached by email, they'd be too heavy and won't come through. THE DEADLINE TO SEND YOUR ENTRY IS May 22nd!

As usual ( YES I'm coping this from last years instructions): I'll share the video on  May, 26th and we will start tweeting him the video from May 26th to May 28th and we WON'T spam him. But you never did so I guess this comes as a given, you are all awesome! (Please, don't cut parts of the video with you in it when sharing it! Tweet the full video!)

For all the newcomers, we want to respect Chris, we know he cares SO MUCH about his fans. We don't do something kind for him for the attention, but because we love and admire him.

THANKS in advance if you'll trust me with this and participate <3 This isn't MY project, it's OURS. It's YOU and your love for Chris that will make this project special.

SPREAD THE WORD, REBLOG AND RETWEET PLEASE!

Please don't wait last minute but send me your entries ASAP! You can tweet me on twitter @mylifeisathread or write me by email mylifeisathread@gmail.com for any doubt, question or advice!
