Taking the streets begins!

Check out this weeks campaign at the newly redesigned (and gorgeous)  Save the SCC site

If you haven’t, also check out the new sticker designs and order them before they disappear.

From the Save the SCC site:

Today starts off the “Taking the Streets” campaign!

It’s simple and it’s cheap. Plaster the streets of your city (town, village…hamlet…) with The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Spread the word to passersby and reach out to fans who might not know about the cancellation and our efforts to save it. There are more of them than you’d think!

So what does it involve?

Tearaway ads. You see them stuck to mailboxes, phone booths, streetlamps, their handy little pre-cut tabs with contact info waving in the wind. Now you’ll see them for Sarah Connor. Print off one of our pre-made ads – or make your own – and stick ‘em up!

Tearaway 1 | Tearaway 2

Mini-flyers and bookmarks. Same idea, slightly less adhesive. Print off a ton and leave them at check out counters – it helps to ask first – stick them in books, magazines, between DVDs, in front of pancake mix…

Flyer 1 | Flyer 2 | Bookmarks

Stickers! You all know about these. Self-adhesive and just as easy as the rest of the streets campaign. Peel ‘em and stick ‘em. Everywhere. Spread the word!

Order theme here.

AND: This is important. TAKE PICTURES. Show us where you’re stickering, plastering flyers, sticking bookmarks. It’s great motivation for fans who might be a little hesitant or shy about joining in and it’s always fun to see what everyone’s doing. Get your practice in, SCC fans. We’re going to be doing this for a while and we’ve got plans to make it even better in October…

In the meantime? Take those streets, SCC fans. Save Sarah Connor.

Special Edition Podcast

Our co-host Cinebo recently got the Sticker Queen Roxy Bisquaint on for a short interview about her time at DragonCon where she met Thomas Dekker and got an awesome video for the Save the SCC site.

From The Sarah Connor Commentaries site:

Roxy B, Thomas D, and Dragon-Con Goodness!!

This is a standard podcast (i.e not a commentary) that I did with the wonderful and talented Roxy Bisquaint. She recently visited Dragon-con and brought back some fun stories, which she was kind enough to let me pick her brain about!

If you don’t yet know who she is, you can follow her on twitter http://twitter.com/roxybisquaint and do check out Terminator: The Sarah Connor Comicals of which she is the brilliant creator!

Also be sure to check out this Video From John Connor himself, Mr. Thomas Dekker, with a special message to all of us! Thank you Thomas! (obtained by Roxy B.)

Postcards today!

Yesterday was Letter Day, today is Postcard day, If you wrote your letters yesterday and didn’t send them yet then get them out today with your postcards so we can flood the WB mailroom with support for TSCC. We want a big impact with this and all the Freaking Big Push missions so it’s important that we work together!

From Save the SCC

Even simpler than yesterday. Just print out one of our pre-made postcards – or make your own if you’re so inclined – write a message supporting the show on the back, stick a stamp on and drop it in the mailbox. Or, if you want to make it even easier, use an online mailing service like Click2Mail or Premium Postcard, where all you have to do it upload the postcard image you want, provide addresses, and they’ll handle the printing and mailing for you. It’s fairly cheap and an easy way to participate.

WB Contact Info | Postcards | Click2Mail

They’re shiny, they’re succinct, they’re ready to be sent. So get sending!

And if you’re really in the postcard mood, why not send a few touristy postcards from wherever you are to show the WB how widespread the fanbase is?

FBP GIVEAWAY Open to Canadians!

After much debate and discussion, the savethescc staff have decided to make a change:

The Freaking Big Giveaway is now open to Canadian as well as US residents.

Why?

Well, here’s our reasoning. Most of the prizes are region-specific. That means they’re pretty much useless for anyone outside of North America. In the case of the grand prize, we can’t afford to ship it outside of the continent.

Unfortunately, that right there excludes most of the world.

A major goal of The Freaking Big Push is to promote DVD and Blu-Ray sales, specifically domestic sales. Region 1 sales. So we limited entries to US-only.

We got together again and started rethinking that. The Season 2 release date is the same for Canada as it is for the US. It’s the same DVD/Blu-Ray. Is it really worth limiting the giveaway to just one country? We decided it wasn’t. As a result…we’re opening the Giveaway to the US and Canada. Mexico has unfortunately been excluded due to concerns with mailing.

What does this mean for all the fans who still don’t qualify?

With different release dates all over the world, we can’t afford to fund giveaways for every release. However, we are doing our best to put together a giveaway for the November 16th UK Season 2 release, so stay tuned for that. In the meantime…please keep in mind that the giveaway is funded entirely by the savethescc staff as a way to give back to the fans.

DAY 2

It is imperative that DVD sales and interest in this show be at a maximum So to aid in this Save the Scc has created the Freaking Big Push to help promote the sales of TSCC’s Season 2 Dvds. Today’s mission is as follows posting ad’s on Craigslist! It’s simple and FREE so no excuses!

It’s Day 2 of The Freaking Big Push! A quick look at the calendar says that it’s our first Craigslist Day! So get ready to hit the internet, SCC fans. We have ads to plaster and people who need to hear about what we’re doing.

From The Freaking Big Push Page:

We all know what Craigslist is People in cities all around the world use it every day to post and view classifieds, personal ads and more. Make today The Sarah Connor Chronicles Day at Craigslist and spread the word. Post personal ads for your favourite characters, offer your cyborg termination services, put artifacts from the future on sale…whatever you can think of! Just be sure to make it clear that each post is an ad for T:SCC and won’t be mistaken for a legitimate offer.

FREAKING BIG PUSH!!!

The time has finally come, SCC fans.  It’s well past midnight, Eastern Standard time, and we know you guys have been waiting so patiently for us to pull this together for you. So here it is. We’re ready and we hope you are too.

It’s September 3rd and it’s time to launch The Freaking Big Push.

The campaign is broken down into various missions which will each launch on a specific date throughout the month. We can’t stress enough how important it is that everyone do these things on the same day. The only way to make a real impact is with strong numbers, pushing each avenue together on a daily basis, together.

It relies on you. Yes, you. The Freaking Big Push hinges on fan participation. We need you on the streets, stickering, handing out flyers, hitting twitter, mailing press releases…it goes on and on. We need you, SCC fans. Sarah Connor needs you.

Will you join us?

The savethescc.com staff put together this handy dandy instructional video on how to participate in some of our missions featured in The Freaking Big Push

So get off your asses and consider this your call to arms. Join your fellow fans in our battle to Save Sarah Connor, because the fight for our tomorrow starts today!
