The Rules
Step One
#Make a video like this one. The video description should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love an icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
# If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.
# Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in the video description so that the holiday joy will spread.
#Post your Wishlist Project video as a video response to this one so everyone can find the videos in one place.
Step Two
# Surf around Youtube to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part:
# If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.
You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.
There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. You don't need to claim that you're doing something for someone-if they get more than one of something they wanted, fantastic! Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
MY 2012 WISHLIST
01. FIC: The Fall | Roy & Alexandria - prompt: birthday
02. VID/FIC: Supernatural/Avengers | I want this crossover soooo badly! In any form I can get it. (Examples: Loki/Sam & Supervengers)
03. VID: Captain America/Avengers | I want a Steve character study. Because Steve Rogers FEELS are some intense FEELS and I just want it, okay. Also, there are loads of songs that deal with soldiers/war that might work for him. (Examples: Sorrow & The War was in Color).
→ 03(a). FIC: I’m noticing that there’s a lot of vid requests. So here’s a bit of a twist. If you can’t vid a Steve Rogers character study, can I get a fic where Steve and Angel (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel) meet. I just feel like they have a very similar personality.
04. VID: Dead Like Me/ Pushing Daisies/Wonderfalls (1 or all) | Character Studies or Ensemble vids preferable, but Ship vids are good too (so long as it’s not Ned/Olive or George/Mason; platonically, I love them.)
05. VID: Shaun of the Dead/Hot Fuzz/Run Fatboy Run/Paul (1 or all) | I miss watching vids for Simon Pegg movies, especially since those films are so amazing. So make me a vid with one or all of the above.
06. VID: Psych | Shawn/Juliet fluff vid, using an upbeat and adorable song
07. VID: Psych | Ensemble - fun times.
08. VID: Supernatural | Castiel character study, using "Dustbowl Dance" by Mumford and Sons
09. VID: The Vampire Diaries | Damon/Katherine, using "Broken Promises for Broken Hearts" by She Wants Revenge
10. REC: Make me laugh, make me cry, make me think with some of your favorite songs, shows, clips, whatever.
11. *BONUS: Anything you would like to give me. Fanart, fanmix, icons, another kind of fic or vid, feedback on some of my fanwork, a cutesy little thing, whatever. I ain't picky. But, y'know, 'tis the season and all that. :)
