okay, so we're planning a forum-wide project for Nino's birthday. we've thought up of doing a song-vid thing, like write lyrics and combine it with an existing tune of some sort and make a video along with it. what do you guys think?

we'd also like to hear your suggestions as to what other projects we can do for his birthday. anyone got any ideas?

The whole graphic comic thing is also a good idea... now if only I knew how to draw

actually, we're not gonna be drawing for this one! i was thinking of just putting up pictures of the boys and adding speech balloons/bubbles and making a story out of it (kinda like a comic of sorts!)

hmm, gthis is a really good idea! I think it'll be good if we do the comic thing.. How bout if all of us make a fanart (1 person 1 fanart) and we put it together? It could be like a folio or some sort?... there would be sections with infos about ninoland? arashi picturres, ninoland made arashi calendars.... wat nino has done to us...list of arashi's tv shows...their profiles........ etc, kinda like a magazine i guess..
So, if we want to we can print it for ourselves... to make it last forever
or... maybe
we can make a video for nino's birthday! maybe a person does something that is relevant to arash/nino (only we combine those kind of stuff from lots of members in ninoland) (example: a video abt erin making a cake for nino? together with jen chan? waha, and then after that theres a scene of me and my nino&arashi dvd, pictures, etc collection, then another scene would be done by another person? do u get wat i mean? ) and put it up in a video along with other stuff, like combining written lyrics with an existing tune...

is it too much?

I think that sort of scrapbook idea seems good just so everyone can pitch in their own way. It's like how they see Nino through their own eyes sort of thing.

i agree with Nicole. the scrapbook idea seems really interesting! we could make like a testament of sorts to Nino and stuff. (i the calendar idea!)

i also love the video idea! different clips of forum members doing something for Nino's birthday! that sounds like fun!

how about a video/scrapbook thing? Like, there would be pictures (or videos) of some fans, like yeah, Erin baking cakes, Nicole doing graphics, Jek and Co, singing and dancing... and we could upload it at youtube (even if it's on rampage!) so that Nino can sing it (I wish!!!)

hehe thanks.
uhuh, i get wat u mean jen chan, so which one will we do for the project? Or do we want to do something else? maybe we need to vote or something??

yeah, maybe we need to do a poll so that we can have a clear definition of what project we're gonna do. but first, we should brainstorm and suggest the types of project so that everyone can have a clear idea of the types they're gonna vote for.

Wait, what's that about me singing/dancing?? XD

Are we going to send this to Nino or something?

I like the idea of the folio of fanworks~ Maybe it can be like a storybook? Like we have like a short fic that we all wrote and we draw pictures for it. XD I am such a kid~

Or maybe we can like have fans video themselves holding banners with messages for Nino then we can make it into a music video. XD It'd be great if its from all over the world~

yeah thats a great idea too!!
so who's going to take notes on the brainstorming? ^^ hahaha

I brought the scrapbook with me. (the one where you guys wrote message to Nino and Jamapi drew) XDD

Haven't you guys sang Love So Sweet last year? At Starbucks? XDD ne, Father?

A poll will be great ^^ and btw, if we're gonna make a scrapbook/portforlio,

Baby-chan will take down notes XDD But isn't it cool if all of the members here give something for Nino's birthday?

ok, so far, we've got the ff ideas:

- scrapbook/portfolio
- fanvid/PV concept (w/ subs/karaoke)
- mini manga/comic
- fanmade birthday song
- nino calendar collection (?)


anything else? let's list it all down so we can decide what to put in the poll.
