Take part in the movie for Céline's birthday

[Fanny!]

I was the guy who got the record of her first album signed at her show in tampa on january 28th,2009. my moment is on youtube. would it be possible to have my moment with celine included in the video?

If you read carefully the first message (and the following ones) of this topic, you will understand that this is not the kind of video we are looking for...

 

The aim is not to gather "random" videos about Céline and her fans, but to record original videos- as original as possible- made by fans.

 

This is, for example, what europeans fans did: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0QfeptMWSM.

 

As you can see, this is not quite the same as your video.

 

However I do not doubt that your moment was amazing.

[celinedream]

Why no Australia?? I think a few girls from the forum are gathered there now...Sarah, Marne, Carla, Denelle I hope you guys can come up with something too

 

We know Céline looooves shoes, right? What if we spelled out Happy Birthday, Celine with all of our high heels and the video shows us walking up and placing them and blowing a kiss at the camera and running off camera barefoot....We could film it somewhere neat and it would be easy and quick to do We would love to participate but I don't know if we can do something on a grand scale. We could make it cute and quick so that maybe some of the more elaborate videos could get put on. This is just one idea that really just came to me right now, I will brainstorm some more

 

OMD! That's an awesome idea girl you truly have a gift for creativity!! i'm sure your video will be fantastic

 

And Tere thanks for posting the pictures. We had a great time and many congratulations to you for climbing all those stairs we had a great time, we were running away from security guards because of course the pyramids is a very restricted place to do crazy stuff like this hehehe but we managed to do it. Hope you guys will like the video

I have an Idea,, In the next coulpe of weeks there will be a Pole Bear Plunge here in the my state, its for the Special Olympic and its on our Beach of the Cheaspeake Bay, Can I write Happy b-day in the sand, Its a very big event here in my state. It even get coverage from the news media,

[CLine]

We recieve a mail from fans from Slovakia and Czech Republic !

 

It would be really great if they could make something !

 

 

 

 

Annnd....

 

I want to add something about this project. We are working on the communication which will surround the film. We already hope that it would be released in a "Journal de Montreal", a famous paper in Quebec, and maybe in a TV program in France (which usally talk about stars and people...).

 

If you have media contact in your own country, and if you think that they would be interessed to use our film in their program, don't hesitate to contact us (here or by PM).

[CLine]

canada WILL be on there. We're making a video in Quebec. See my earlier post.

 

 

Yes I know, and fortunately you are there because without you and your friends it would have no canadians to be in on it. And I though that like in France, USA and Canada would be 2 countries where LOT of fans would have been interested in this project for Celine.

 

But there is no fight between fans to take part in the film. Sooooo we hope you will succeed on your mission !

 

Lastly, do you find how you will make to write the message ? Cause it's the most difficult to do...

[ladylindsey]

Okay then we will do the high heels! We are excited about it and will find a very creative/cool place to film it in the USA!

Not sure about the message part yet. I like Jimena's idea. We will be at the winter carnival, and also in Montreal for a few days...so we have a few options for location. If anyone has ideas please feel free to share. We can also make a pit stop in Charlemagne if that helps with any ideas. Actually some of us that will be in the film are from the U.S. so its a little bit of both countries if worse comes to worse.

I know you guys want something spectacular which is why its hard to come up with an idea. Your first video is great, but I have no way of getting us a plane lol.

 

Maybe we can do something along the lines of going to a few Celine-ish spots in QC....like Notre Dame Basillica, Nickles, The Globe, her old home in Charlemagne, Centre Bell and spelling out 'bonne fete' through each clip.

 

I have no clue what to do lol...so ideas please!

[ladylindsey]

that sounds cool autumnskies...maybe at each place use objects from the site like at the Basilica use songbooks to spell out a part of it, at Nickel's use some french fries/food, the Globe write it with sticks or in the snow if it's snowing, it would be cool to use ticket stubs or something at the Bell Centre...gah if you could get hockey pucks it would be funny- sticks and pucks Just some ideas I had off the top of my head...maybe that will steer you in a direction of some sort I love projects like this, I love to think of goofy things

[TEREFUNKEN]

I want to share this to encourage others fans, BELIEVE ME...ITS VERY FUNNY TO DO SUCH KIND OF GOOFY THINGS...LOL (even with setback like this, or the people looking at you like "what a f.:"???)

[Lawna]

I would like to take part, but is there anyone from Southern California that has any ideas? Even if you live in Las Vegas...I will be in LV tmrw until Sunday the 24th.

[Fanny!]

Las Vegas... that would be great. (or else where, of course!) Edited January 22, 2010 at 05:50 PM by Fanny!

[nuts2you]

How long does this movie have to be.

[Fanny!]

How long does this movie have to be.

If you mean to ask how long your video has to be, there is no limit. We would rather have hours of movie to be able to select the best parts and include them in the final movie.

 

So are you going to do something?

[nuts2you]

Fanny first how is this come along, 2nd when is the dead line to have all vid in by.... Has anybody started yet.

[TEREFUNKEN]

Hi there !!!

 

What's new ??? Ohhhhh just this little article in this not really famous news paper...

 

 

Guys !! Le Journal de Montreal is talking about us today !!!!!!

 

http://lejournaldequebec.canoe.ca/artsetsp...203-213725.html

 

 

The Red Heads can't take a backward step !! It's the last straight line, and we feel a BIG pressure !!!

 

Come on !! If want to be in the party, it's now or never my friends !!!!!!

 

 

(if someone can translate the link it will be really appreciated.

[Fanny!]

 

We are recording a video at the Eiffel Tower tomorrow... YAY!

[autumnskies00]

Wow, cool! I'll try to translate.

 

Les fans de Céline ­travaillent d’arrache-pied pour lui offrir un cadeau particulier à son 42e anniversaire, le 30 mars prochain. Les Red Heads ne sont pas à court d’idées.

 

The fans of Celine are working hard for her, offering a gift for her 42nd birthday, on the 30th of March. The Red Heads are not short of ideas.

 

Pour le 40e anniversaire de Céline, il y a deux ans, ils lui ont offert une vidéo avec des témoignages de fans, mais aussi de proches collaborateurs comme Franco Dragone, Luc Plamondon, son garde du corps, et même des employés du George V, où elle a l’habitude de ­poser ses valises lorsqu’elle débarque à Paris.

 

For Celine's 40th birthday, two years ago, they have give her a video with testimonies of fans, but also of some collaboraters like Franco Dragone, Luc Plamondon, bodyguards, and all of the employees of George V, where she stayed in Paris.

 

Cette année, les Red Heads remettent ça avec un nouveau film, encore plus audacieux. « L’idée est d’écrire ‘‘Bonne fête ­Céline’’, ou ‘‘Joyeux ­anniversaire’’ de toutes les façons possibles », résume Laure Hestin.

This year, the Red Heads are putting together a new film, that is even more bold. The idea is to write "Bonne fete Celine", or "Joyeux anniversaire" in any way possible." said Laure Hestin.

 

Dernièrement, une soixantaine de fans se sont réunis sur la plage de ­L’Espiguette à Grau du Roi, près de Montpellier, pour lui écrire un « message humain ».

 

First, 60 (?? I'm bad with numbers lol) fans reunited on the beach of L'Espiguette a Grau du Roi, next to Montpellier, to write her a human message.

 

« On avait la plage à nous tout seuls. Avec nos corps, on a écrit “Bonne Fête”. On a loué un avion et les services d’un caméraman pour ­filmer la scène du haut des airs ».

 

They had the beach to themselves. With their bodies, they wrote "Bonne Fete". They rented a plane and a cameraman to film the scene from the air.

 

« Au bout du “Bonne Fête”, c’était écrit “Céline”, sur un badge fait par le père de Laure », ajoute Manuel ­Michaud.

 

At the end of "Bonne Fete", they wrote "Celine" with a badge made by the father of Laure, and Manuel Michaud.

 

Samedi après-midi, juste avant le spectacle de Véronic DiCaire, les fans profiteront de l’occasion pour répéter l’expérience avec un message d’anniversaire fait de parapluies. L’image ­sera filmée du haut de la tour Eiffel ou du Sacré-Coeur.

 

Saturday afternoon, just after the concert of Veronic DiCaire, the fans will use the occasion to repeat the experience with a birthday message done with umbrellas. The image will be filmed from the top of the Eiffel Tower or the Sacre-Coeur.

 

Un cœur énorme

 

An enormous heart

 

« Céline a beaucoup de fans et avant que n’existent les Red Heads, ils vivaient leur passion chacun de leur côté, derrière leurs ordinateurs. À plusieurs on est plus forts. Notre objectif est de nous amuser et d’avoir une démarche profession­nelle dans les événements que nous organisons », explique Laure.

 

Celine has a lot of fans, and before the Red Heads even existed they lived their passion on their own, through their computers. "Our goals are to have fun and be proffesional in the events that we organize." explains Laure.

 

Elle, Manuel et Lydia sont des fans de Céline depuis le milieu des années 90. Les fans français connaissent tout de Céline et de ce qui l’entoure : le nom de producteur en France (Gilbert Coullier), celui de son amie ­québécoise Julie Snyder, et même ses habitudes de ­magasinage lorsqu’elle est en ville.

 

Her, Manuel and Lydia have been fans of Celine since the mid 90's. The french fans know a lot of Celine and about her life: the name of her producer in France (Gilber Coullier), her Quebecoise friend Julie Snyder, and even her shopping habbits when in town.

 

 

Any way you can try to get Veronic Decaire in there at her show??? She could do her impression of Celine singing happy birthday to herself lol

Jimena, this is exactly where we recorded our video.

 

We had an AMAZING time! Will post pics soon.

[Claudette]

So we here in SA have been thinking about this for the last couple of weeks and we just couldn't come up with something. There are only a few of us on the forum and some of us live very far from one another. Anyways, this morning after I read the article about Celine's contribution to that orphanage in Soweto (which she promised to give money to for parties and stuff for the next five years) an idea hit me. Why don't we get the kids from that orphanage involve in the video? So would that be ok if we do something like that. I think it would be very fitting for them to say happy birthday to her considering what she is doing for them.

That is a FANTASTIC idea!! I think that would be so amazing. I would love to see them be apart of the video
