promoting TSCC and our efforts... ON A BILLBOARD!!!
Jun 29 2009, 4:05 AM EDT | Post edited: Jun 29 2009, 4:05 AM EDT
We've been writing letters, sending postcards, tweeting and emailing to have our voices heard. Now we're going bigger.

The idea:

a mobile billboard that drives around Los Angeles (with special attention to places like The WB headquarters) advertising our show and our efforts. We're currently working on a mockup of the design that will go on the billboard, which will be posted here once complete.

The details:

Time: Three days (minimum) = 24 hours

Size: 10'H x 20'W (that's 3.048m x 6.096m)

Cost: $750/day + $1250 setup = $3500

We want to coincide the billboard with the release of the Season Two DVD/Blu-Ray in the United States, so once production time is factored in, the fundraising deadline is:
August 20th 2009

http://savethescc.com/billboard.html

This campaign is big and it's just been posted tonight and we have already $350. With as many fans as we have... I mean thousands have signed the petition... $3500 should be easy to raise. Please get the word out! Donate what you can, you'll be doing this show and our efforts to save it a great service. Once the mock-up of the design is completed, we'll be putting it up on a picture of a mobile billboard so everyone will have a clearer understanding of what we're aiming at.

If you have any questions or comments, ask here or go ahead and email the addy that's on the site. THANKS!

I do believe international folks can contribute.

You can either try it and find out or wait until I can get back to you on that.

Awesome, I've got PayPal so I'll whack some money towards this. It's an excellent idea of course.

Also, could one of the TSCC please video or photograph the billboard in action if this happens? Would be excellent to see some of the love for our show in action!

There's a few TSCC fans in the LA area and will be videotaping and taking pictures of it. I for one will be sure to go up there and tape it. Do you find this valuable?

"We've been writing letters, sending postcards, tweeting and emailing to have our voices heard. Now we're going bigger."
All these efforts are because TSCC has changed the view of television...It fulfilled the hope that there's a place for heavy material.This is about expressing the need for quality and speaking up for recognizing it, recognizing what TSCC has achieved.

And maybe more people will be curious about TSCC…
Publicity and engaging opinion is needed and can’t hurt.

But most importantly, TSCC can get its well-deserved reputation back.
It's not enough talking about something, the quality of talking counts the most.
TSCC makes people think about serious questions...and leads to intellectual, hot discussions.

There is a need for high standard.
The audience’s talking about TSCC hasn't lessened, the fruitful discussions are still continuing...
TSCC has achieved the attention of educated persons who can express they are not willing to be satisfied with less quality.

Donated on behalf of Gen Young (because she's only got some old washers and a picture of Benjamin Franklin she drew on the side of an ammo box).

Also PM'd mods requesting that this thread be stickied.
