I haven't posted here in awhile, but...
I'm having an issue.
I'm taking a YA Lit class. For my final project, I have to either write a 6-10 page paper, or create a project (with a 3-4 written paper explaining the project).
I really want to do a creative project, focusing on Harry Potter. Originally, I had wanted to do a photography project, but we lost the original professor at the beginning of the semester, and I don't think that this idea will fly with the new prof.
Now I'm thinking I want to do a video. I'd really love to focus on how Harry Potter has affected/inspired people. I want people to send in videos to me, answering a few questions, talking about how Harry Potter has affected their life. How they met friends/boyfriends/girlfriends/fiances/husbands/wives through Harry Potter. How they went into a certain career because of Harry Potter. I want them to talk about how Harry Potter inspired them. How they started a wizard rock band, if they got a tattoo, if they draw/write/take photos, if there's a quote that inspires them to live their life a certain way. I also would like to have them send in photos of them at cons, of their artwork, of their tattoos. Anything pertaining to Harry Potter.
I'd love to have videos of wrock performances, of people in wrock bands talking about why they started it. I'd love to have a section about HPA, and how it's connecting the events in HP to what's currently happening in the real world, and what good they're doing because of Harry Potter.
And if someone doesn't want to/can't make a video, they could just email me the answers to the questions, any photos if they wanted to include them, and I'd try to figure out a way to include it in the video.
Problem is, I fell out of the fandom when I moved to Florida. I don't really speak to any of my old HP friends, because I wasn't able to afford going to cons while I lived down there, and I lost touch. I'm not sure if I'd be able to get enough people to send me videos.
I think this could be a good idea, but it's all about whether people respond. If I decide to go ahead with this, would anybody be willing to send in a video?
(too bad this is due before any cons are happening, or else I could just go to one and ask people there)
