This idea came to me during a very dark period in my life. I felt betrayed, lonely, hurt, but the worst thing was losing my hope. I was sitting on the floor in complete darkness and crying, thinking that the only good thing in my life was gone. But when I looked out of the window, it was snowing. I got up, wiped my tears away and just looked at the snow for a long hour. The snowflakes were dancing in the moonlight, and they never stopped. They kept dancing like it was their favorite thing to do, they danced until the very end. Thatâs when I knew I wasnât done.
Youâre probably wondering what the heck Iâm talking about. The idea came to me when I was watching the snow, and at first I thought it was crazy, even impossible. But my dear friend Shirley reminded me that if there was someone who could do it, it was me. So, Iâm doing it.
Itâs called Destiel Documentary and itâs about us, the Destiel fandom. I think itâs about time we get some recognition, dismiss some rumors, and show the insiderâs view. In addition to that, it would also be a great Christmas present to all of us, because letâs be honest, we need it.
Itâs completely free, Iâm doing this of my own free will, all Iâm asking for is your support and help. If you would like to participate and are willing to show your face to the entire fandom, please continue reading!
Iâll need two types of videos.
1) Q&A video.
Basically, all you have to do is sit in front of your camera and answer some questions. Itâs not difficult, but again, youâll have to be okay with the whole fandom seeing your face. Iâll also need the transcript of your speech. Please understand this necessity, because weâre all from different countries and all have different accents. Of course the video must be in English. Now, for the questions:
What does shipping mean to you? What does OTP/ship mean to you?
When did you start shipping Destiel, which episode sealed the deal?
What does Destiel mean to you? (Personal experiences, stories)
How do you see the Destiel fandom?
What would you like to happen to Dean and Cas in the future?
You donât have to answer all of these questions in order to send a video, but your video must be 5-15 minutes long.
2) Extras
Iâll need some extra footage from you in order to make our video more interesting.
You saying: I am a Destiel fan.
You saying: (JUST the name of your country).
You in front of the famous sights of your country (*not necessary, but would be a nice addition).
Whatever else you would like to shoot related to Destiel.
The first two are required if youâre making a Q&A video. BUT! You can also send only extras without making a Q&A video. Â (5+ minutes long.)
The quality of your video must be :
Bright, clear and not shaky (at least not too much).
What to send with your email:
Your name or whatever you want to be called if youâre doing the Q&A
A list of names of the people participating if thereâs more than two
Transcript of your speech
Links to your social media (*not necessary)
Send your video to destieldocumentary.hotmail.com until December 5th.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me, or my second in command, Shirley.
Letâs do this together, guys! Letâs make the best present that the Destiel fandom could ever get, apart from Destiel becoming canon of course! ;)
