Henry [刘宪]

.1. Video message

This will be the main present out of the things we will be giving him, a little video message from everyone compiled into 1 video for him. It’s simple; you just need a decent camera or your own phone. There are 2 methods for you to do this. The reason we are doing this is because it’s the easiest way to send him your wishes and we believe he will be touched seeing so many people from around the world supporting him.

1st method
Record a video message of MAXIMUM 15 seconds to Henry. You can just say a simple happy birthday, sing the birthday song or say some simple encouraging words to Henry. Make sure to keep the video within 15 seconds as we cannot allow long messages if not Henry might have to sit in front of his laptop,prepare popcorn and watch a birthday movie instead.

Things to note if you are doing it this way:
- Keep the video within 15 seconds. If longer than 15 seconds, we will only use the first 15 seconds.
- You can record the video together with friends, BUT keep the group small.
- Languages preferred will be English, Mandarin and Korean. If you are not confident speaking English, you can wish him in your language but do provide us a translation of what you have said.
- Make sure your video is clear. Preferably use a camera to record instead of your phone. This is to prevent any blur videos if resizing is needed. Also, make sure your voice can be heard clearly, if not Henry won’t be able to know what you are saying.
- Make sure your video is in the following format before sending us: MPEG, WMV, MP4 or AVI. If we cannot open or convert your video, we will not be accepting it. Most preferred will be WMV.
- PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE MESSAGES LIKE ‘HENRY OPPA PLEASE MARRY ME!’
- Please change the file name of your video to the following format: Country_Name (E.g. USA_Mary)

2nd method
If you are too shy to show your face, you can send us your own picture and a 15 seconds AUDIO recording of your message. You can then cover your face in the photo with anything you want, for example, with a piece of paper with “Happy Birthday, Henry!” written on it.

Things to note if you are doing this way:
- Keep the audio within 15 seconds. If longer than 15 seconds, we will only use the first 15 seconds.
- You can do it with friends, BUT keep the group small.
- Languages preferred will be English, Mandarin and Korean. If you are not confident speaking English, you can wish him in your language but do provide us a translation of what you have said.
- Make sure your photo is clear to prevent any blur photos if resizing is needed. Also make sure your audio recording is clear enough for Henry to hear what you are saying.
- You can send us a MAXIMUM of 2 photos. Make sure the photos are in one of the following formats: JPG, GIF, PNG. Most preferred will be JPG.
- The audio file should be in one of the following format: MP3, WMA, WAV.
- Please change the file names of your photos and audio recording to the following format: Country_Name (E.g. USA_Mary,USA_Mary_1,USA_Mary_2)

Important note:
We won’t stop you from holding fan support items in the video, but PLEASE KEEP THEM TO HENRY/SJM/SJ RELATED ITEMS. E.g. Don’t hold a Donghae towel in a Henry Birthday Video. We might not accept the video if we happen to see it.

Submission
Once you are done with your recording, email it to stringswithHenry@gmail.com with the following subject.

[Subject] Video submission for birthday project (Your Country)

Attach your video/photo and audio recording to the email. If the file size is too big to attach, you can upload it to Mediafire or Megaupload and send us the download link in the email. Uploading it to Youtube and sending us the link should be the last resort if no methods work. Also, in the email please give us the following details.

The name you want us to put (Should be the same as the file name of the video/photo)
The country you are from
English translations of what you have said: This is only applicable if you did not use English in the video.

Deadline for submission: 4th September 2011 ,11PM KST ( We will not postpone the deadline so please send them in on time.)

2. Donations

We are opening for donations for the project as we plan to buy him some other gifts too, and the gifts might have to depend on the amount we have. There are a few methods you can donate. The donations are purely voluntary on your side and any amount can do so. If you really want to donate but don’t have Paypal, you can tell us and we will see what we can do about it.

a. Paypal
