BexxY Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Hi Bexxy. Please don't rip your hair out.........you would look a bit odd when we all end up on the prog together! I hope you managed to get it sorted, it is a nighmare when things don't go right isn't it. I think my CD should have arrived with them today. I hope Sara gets on ok Phew its ok my hair is SAVED i managed to sort it out Nero can be a bit funny with me sometimes Now i just have to post it off today Oh yes Sara our thoughts are with you today Hope you get on alright Hmm and this thread basically Mika is doing a secret concert in June and they are looking for some die hard fans to be interviewed on Channel 4 ....hmm thats about it the whole thread summed up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kath Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Well, in a nutshell..............Channel four are asking for 'die hard Mika fans' to take part in a documentary. We don't know how many they want. Those that can get to London are doing a screen test and those that can't are sending in a video answering the questions. The videos are generally coming out too long to attach to an email (as there are lots of questions and once we get talking about Mika we can't stop!) so we are posting them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you like his music? How big a fan are you? Do you ever push Mika onto any of your friends or family? Have you ever done anything extreme as a fan? How many times have you been to see him? Do you have a favorite gig? Favorite song? / Why Favourite Album / why Favourite Vid / why Have you ever met him? Are you a website / forum member? Why should we document your journey to the gig? Name, age, from? Where did you grow up? Where do you live now / who with? What do you do for a living? What do you do in your spare time? Other interests?

BexxY Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 yes i think there is time i think kath said the closing sate would be the 18th June Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beckar Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 So. If you send them the video (can you upload it to youtube then send them the link? would be easier to send I guess xD and it saves them taking ages to download it) ... and they accept you.. can you go to the gig?

BexxY Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 you see we dont really know much about it as far as we know from this they only select two die hard fans who c4 then interview and follow their stories to the concert. i have asked Tba if they would allow MFC members to go to the gig to be in the audience but i think it is a draw situation where they randomly select people i wish i knew more but it is all very secretive...maybe when Sara gets back today she will know more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not really a 'die-hard' fan.. well as much as I would want to be, since I still havnt been to my first gig. BRING ON SOMERSET XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRING ON SOMERSET XD You certainly are a die hard fan............everybody knows it isn't always possible for everyone to get to gigs. Lets face it, neither you or Wendi have managed to see Mika yet but there can be few more dedicated fans. I tried to upload to both Myspace and Youtube because that is what I thought..........but it was just over the limit on both. You tube is ten minutes and mine was only eight and a half but it has a 100 MB limit and mine was 110. Bexy, I had an old jiffy bag that I used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovetoday Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 well im working on my video response this morning once i get back from the newagents ......But the general idea behind the email was so that everyone who entered from the MFC would atleast be selected to be in the audience thats so cool, why cant i like in the uk?!

Sarahlou1973 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Good afternoon all... I just e-mailed Endemol as I am having all sorts of problems finding someone willing to go with me to a screen test, so I asked whether I could go to the screen test on my own, as technically this would be the same as sending in a video recording of me answering the questions on my own....I also explained that I am having problems getting a video recording to them for the reasons already discussed (i.e. size) and asked if they would receive it on a floppy disc instead as I don't have a CD/DVD burner.... I then asked whether there was any chance that people who had attended a screen test would get priority tickets for the gig (cheeky I know, but I thought I would ask...). This is the response I have just received... Hi Sarah, Unfortunately we are looking for two fans who are friends so we'd need to see you both at a screen test. We except DVD's and CD's to view the home made screen tests. If you would like to try and get tickets please register at the Vodafone Music website. Kind regards, Arianna It looks as though I will just have to take pot luck on the website ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
