[project] Video for Ayu

[yabieru]

With all the recent news and seeing the hashtag #WeLoveYouAyu that Tio/Tayumi kindly created, it came to my mind that it would be a good idea to do a video for Ayu, showing her our love and saying to her that we'll be always by her side. What do you think?

First idea

Spoiler:

I thought a good idea would be that we record ourselves singing an Ayu song that we choose. I think, the perfect choice is who... because of the lyrics

You don't have to sing the entire song because in the final video only a part of each video will be shown but it's better because maybe some parts of the song could be missed. If you are too shy to sing (like me) you could lipsync (for your life!) because the final video will have the original Ayu song And you can record yourself wherever and however you want: in your house, at the street, in selfie mode, with an Ayu T-Shirt, with friends...

At the end you could show a piece of paper with a message for Ayu so I'll put all together in the final part of the song (you know the ahh.. ahh... part xD). And if we are all smiling much better!

For a set date, I think the... 31st? So I can make the video before I start my exams. Everyone who wants to join please send me the video at yabieru@hotmail.com with your name or nickname and your country

SPREAD THE WORD!

EDIT: If you are too shy and don't want to sing, but want to join it anyway, you could do like @~angel*ayumi~ said:

There are also some parts in the song without text, so we can fill this time up with ppl that are too shy to sing, or with pictures of ppl who don´t want to record themselves but want to send in pictures.

EDIT 25/5

Seeing all the ideas people are giving and thinking of the ones who cannot record themselves or sing I thought in change a couple of things in the video in able to make it more “cohesive” and easy to participate for everyone.

 Instead of sing or lip-sync the song we could show the lyrics of who… (like in Perfume MV which pedronekoi shared) but in papers. I’ll display the lyrics and you have to choose one verse and take a picture of yourself showing it. Please tell in a post which line you choose and I'll be editing this post to add your name. For the 2 parts of the song with no lyrics I have 2 ideas:

- The part in the middle: We can show papers with memories related to Ayu like “In January 12th I met you”, “With voyage I met my boyfriend” or simply “My favorite song is Microphone”. Things like that
- The part in the end: The same first idea we had. Show messages encouraging Ayu. Whatever you want to write

I change the video for pictures because I think it's easier to everyone to just take some pictures than record themselves.

And, that’s it. If you want to join please, send your 3 pictures with your name or nickname and your country to yabieru@hotmail.com.
Please, spread the word in blogs, social media… WE CAN MAKE IT TOGETHER!
