Hey everyone,
SO the intro video is nearly ready and will hopefully be online Wednesday. If you weren't at the Google Hangout then here's what we now need from everyone interested in doing some vlogging:
SO the intro video is nearly ready and will hopefully be online Wednesday. If you weren't at the Google Hangout then here's what we now need from everyone interested in doing some vlogging:
- A quick 5 second video of you holding up a word that you hate, that explains your mental health disorder. It could be mad, crazy, freak, mental, attention seeking, lazy...I'm sure you've all got hundreds, so just one will do. If you write the word you want to do below, then we'll know who is doing what and have no duplicates. You can hold it up on a piece of paper, your hand, a mirror, a post-it note on your head, whatever!
- Another quick 5 second video of you TEARING UP that word (please make sure these are separate videos, to make it easier for me to edit). If you've written it on your hand or a mirror then show yourself wiping it up. If it's paper then scrunch it up, rip it, whatever shows you getting rid of that word.
- Lastly, we need some personal intro videos about you and your disorder. You can do this any way you want; talking, writing about yourself on bits of paper, showing people photos, etc... The video can be as short as you want, but no longer than 3 minutes. We'll go into more detail in videos later down the line, this is just as if you're introducing yourself to someone. Your intro video should include:Who you are (name/age)
What your mental health disorders are
How long you have had it/them for
How it makes you feel/how you cope/what happens to you on a daily basis - you don't need to go into this in too much detail, as we'll have individual videos about things like coping methods, daily lives, etc..
Anything you want to say about Minds Like Ours - why you joined? what you hope to achieve? why we're great?
Anything else you think is good to includeIf we could get some of these videos in ASAP then we can start filling up the YouTube channel on Wednesday! Hurray! The first priority are the two 5 second videos, then personal intros next.
Please send them to bex@mindslikeours.co.uk
Thanks guys!
