30 Below Fest

[flownwrong]

So, in honour of dS turning 30 this year, I decided to do a little something. Namely, a celebration fest.

Here's the tumblr link to the info post, and below is the same info for DW users.

So what is 30 Below?

On April 23rd, 1994, a certain television movie aired in Canada. The rest is 30 years of amazing, rich and lovely history — still going in 2024.

30 below is a fest to celebrate this anniversary, run byflownwrong. Whether you’ve been here from the get-go or just joining the fun — this fest is for you. Let’s spread the love for the wonder that is due South! 

 🐢30 below will run from March 11th (The Eleventh Of March!) until April 23rd (the pilot airing date!)

🐢each of 7 weeks will have a theme, complete with prompts to help you get going; themes will go up on February 18th

🐢you are free to use any, all or none of the prompts and themes! they are optional and are here to inspire, not restrict

🐢this event accepts any contributions:

• all fanworks: meta, art, gifsets, photo or video edits, fanmixes, fic, rec lists… anything you feel inspired to create!
• community interaction: comments, shout outs, liveblogging, reminiscing, etc — don't forget to post about what you got up to so we can all share the joy!

🐢contributions are welcome all throughout the fest, and you're never too late — the whole year is anniversary year!

🐢it's preferred that you post your themed contributions during the corresponding week, but you're welcome to share whenever!

🐢if you're not on tumblr (which you're probably not if you're reading this!), post wherever you're comfortable and let me know if you want it to be crossposted!

I'm not doing a separate comm here, and I'm not subscribed to all of you, so I might miss it unless you ping me on DW or at ds30below. But the idea is to just celebrate, and DW does not work like tumblr, so you can do whatever you like to generate some activity here, at any other dS-related comm, or at your journal :)

That's about it! I'll crosspost all the announcements here, if that's okay (bear with me, I'm not very good at DW!)

I ❤️ your brain so hard for this I can't even! And TYK for doing DW crossposting!

Yays for dS and its 30th anniversary!

Hey, what a cool idea! You're welcome to post all announcements in this comm, that way most people interested in dS will probably see it. I'll also signal boost in my journal.
