Scheduled Update #12

Konnichiwa minna! :)

How's everyone?

We're currently working on the puzzle kits. We really do believe you'll also be blown away at the design of the card. Just a little patience, friends. It'll surely be rewarded. ^^ Please be reminded that those who did not submit the necessary information for the puzzle kit will not have a chance to get their kit anymore.

We are also pretty much set with the video phase of our project. To those we'll be visiting, please watch out for an email from us to confirm that you can meet us on designated dates. For those who are filming themselves, we'll be giving you instructions, as well.

So, that's it for now. We're mecha excited about this project! XD

A short note...

What's up everyone? This isn't an official scheduled update...but just wanted to take this chance to say a couple of things.


So far we had a good turnout for those who wanted the puzzle kits as well as participants in the video. Thank you to everyone who are supporting the project up to this point! It is very much appreciated. m(_ _)m


We still have a couple of puzzle kits left and we have contacted the people who have signed up with us from the beginning. If there are no takers, there is a possibility that some people will get two pieces instead of one.

That's it. We'll keep you posted, as usual. Enjoy the rest of the week everyone!

Scheduled Update #11

Wow.


That's all we can say.

We received the puzzle from the vendor 8/3/07. And it's just...amazing! It's mind boggling. Kyoku-chan, our artist, hontoni arigatou! Nyan-chan, our translator, hontoni arigatou! T_T So far, we're in very good shape. (For an image of how the puzzle looks like, it will be emailed)


So what's next? Well, we just want to remind everyone of the release forms. The due date is on August 6, Monday(that's tomorrow, yo!). If you want to participate in the video, please have your release forms filled out and emailed to us by then.

Also, we'd like to explore adding a new feature for the video phase of our project: filming yourselves. Instead of us going to you, you could simply film yourselves with your own cameras and send us a copy of the video. Please note, you'll still need to sign the release form even if you choose to film yourselves. If there are any takers for this idea, please do email us.

For those of you not participating in the video, please see our emails regarding your postcard puzzle kits for further instructions. We'll be emailing that information to everyone in our mailing list anyway, since it includes an image of the puzzle


We've also bought the envelopes already. v^^v

Here's a preview of how a puzzle piece would look like, back and front.

That's just an example and not my final message design, and I (Jean) will still be working on it later. Can you imagaine how amazing it'll look once they're all next to each other? That's when we got hit by another idea: Once you've finished designing the back of your puzzle piece, why don't you send us a picture of your final piece front and back? That way we can collage them and put them together in one big picture and post it up here in the blog so everyone will see each other's works. Wouldn't that look great? While there will be a few limitations, we encourage everyone to be creative in designing when you get your kit. We can't wait to see how everyone designs their messages! ^^


Well then, that's it. Have a great week ahead of you and we look forward to hearing from you guys soon!
