Kristen Bell - Kristen Bell Fan Project: Breakout Beyond! (2)

Project Breakout Beyond
Kristen Bell Gift Project

Kristen thanks us for the fanbook!

What are you on about?!

Between the 13th to 15th of June Kristen Bell will be at the Starfury convention 'Breakout Beyond', a joint convention for fans of Veronica Mars and Prison Break. Within the KB Encounters thread we've been discussing the possibility of using this event as a chance to show Kristen how much we adore her. Now as fun as it would be to jump out of a huge cake we've decided to go for a different, and more common, approach - a fan book!

If you're going to BoB then you may be interested in joining this livejournal community.

Fanbook

We've decided to put together a fan book for Kristen which will be put together by us here on the boards and the clever glueing skills of Kirsty (Whordy) . The book has 24 pages of which at least one will be used for an introduction page put together by those involved in setting up this project.

Front of Book
Inside The Book

What goes in the book? Well you decide! Feel free to discuss that here as well.

Extra Gifts

We are also planning on buying a few little gifts to give to Kristen, including things from each different country we come from. Obviously, this part will be limited to those who are attending the convention and can bring the gifts with them.

There is also going to be a fan-vid competition at the convention, which the guests will judge. If anyone not attending would like to make a video (Veronica Mars related) and send it to us, we will then pick our favourites, and enter them in the competition, giving you full credit for making them. And if you win, we'll send you your prize!

We will also be making a donation to a charity that Kristen supports (most likely Invisible Children). If you'd like to donate to this then please PM me with your email address and I can explain how to go about that.

Charity Donations

Seperate from the book, we are also going to be making a donation to a charity that Kristen supports, which we will then inform her of at the convention. We would really love any and all contributions from you guys, whether you're participating in the book or not! The bigger the donation we can make, the better.

All donations can be made to the Paypal account we have created for this project. To donate, you must set up a Paypal account, and send your donation to kbfanproject@googlemail.com. All payments through Paypal are 100% secure, and your bank details are not seen by anyone.

The payments we recieve will then be transferred to the charity we choose, and we will give Kristen a reciept of this transaction, along with the names of everyone who has contributed!

You can donate whatever amount you like, anything you can contribute will be greatly appreciated.

Deadline

The deadline for all contributions is May 18th.

Questions

If you have any questions (which I'm sure you will, I don't really think I explain things all that well!) then please comment here and ask us, PM one of us , or email kbfanproject@googlemail.com

So who is in charge of this thing?

Well we have four people as the brains of the operation. Three of these people are going to be at the actual convention and will be doing the actual handing over of the book. These are Kirsty (Whordy), Eva (motylik20), Mandy (Mandy-J) and myself - Rai.

Kirsty is going to be in charge of actually putting the book together. Mandy is dealing with the paypal account if anyone wants to donate anything towards the costs of putting this together and donating money to a charity of Kristens choice. Mandy will also be getting an extra gift or two. Eva will be putting together a home made cushion for Kristen! And me, I'm dealing with the admin side of things and keeping things organised with signing up etc...

How do I take part

Firstly we need to know how many people want to take part so that we know if we need more than one book. In order to do that we're giving everyone three weeks to sign up. Once those three weeks we can then let you know how much space you'll have to fill up and that'll give you a month to put everything together and get it in to us by May 18th.

If you would like to take part then post here and let us know or send a PM to me - silvercrystal - letting me know that you would like to be added to the sign up list.

You can also sign up at Kirsty's Livejournal.

IMPORTANT DATES

23rd March - Final date to sign up to take part.
18th May - Final submission date for anything you want in the book.
13th - 15th June - Breakout Convention!

Thanks Rai. We'll update with the ryan info soon

**the echo fades** · 06-09-2008, 11:58 AM

Anyone have any ideas for what I could put on the front of the book..?

**silvercrystal** · 06-09-2008, 01:40 PM

As in the cover or the front page?

Maybe give her some information on how the project came about? Mention fanforums and livejournal, give her a bit of background info? Figures of how well this board is doing now? Other than that I'm stumped!

Mandy-J · 06-09-2008, 02:11 PM

And also, don't forget about the world map idea

And the second also: the info about the ryan/kristen combo project is here

**the echo fades** · 06-09-2008, 03:05 PM

Yeah, I meant the actual front cover

I forgot about the map thing.. it would be quite hard to do though, because unless it was a really small-scale map it would only cover a certain amount, so you wouldn't be able to get everyones countries in. But I could give it a try, if I can find a map

I like the way Anita has done the Francis book too, with the pic of his tattoo in the middle. But I can't think of anything Kristen-related I could do that with

**silvercrystal** · 06-10-2008, 02:46 PM

Collage it! Things we associate with Kristen?

**Shopaholic** · 06-11-2008, 06:35 AM

Thanks for the new thread..

That's agreat idea Mandy.. and you definitely should post opics when you're finnished..

motylik20 · 06-11-2008, 09:26 AM

You could try a collage of various maps and her dogs. As in to show where she has fans that contributed to the book and combine it with something she likes.

Btw I think we should keep the first page to describe the project and what gifts where given and by whom, so she can check that easily.

Mandy-J · 06-11-2008, 12:34 PM

I just donated to the RH/KB charity project and now we're about 40 cents shy of 300 dollars

More info about the practical stuff for BOB in the encounters thread

**silvercrystal** · 06-11-2008, 01:49 PM

You should have roughly $40 coming from me in 20 mins or so. So that takes us over the $300 mark!

Also Kirsty I just pm'ed you!

**the echo fades** · 06-11-2008, 04:13 PM

Got it Rai

Anyone want to volunteer to write the first page on Friday? I hate my handwriting

either that or I can type something.

Mandy-J · 06-12-2008, 01:41 AM

We can probably borrow Anita's stencil thingy on Friday to make the list of participating people

motylik20 · 06-12-2008, 04:39 AM

I'd volunteer to write the page if everyone will be ok with my handwriting.

You'll see it all tomorrow. ^^

**silvercrystal** · 06-12-2008, 02:00 PM

I'd offer but then you'd only have a scanned version! haha. So if one of you guys does it then it's in actual handwriting. ^_^
