After our hugely successful birthday project last year was received warmly by not only fans but Sebastian Vettel himself, Schumacher-Vettel Source will now embark on our next project. The reasoning behind our continued creation of these interactive projects is simple: we want to give you an outlet to connect with the reigning World Champion.
This year we aim to wish a very Happy 26th Birthday to Sebastian with your dedicated help. However, we would like to avoid a carbon copy of the birthday book we created last year. Rather than send us your long yet beautifully thoughtful messages, we are asking you to do the following…
Simply send us a single word you believe describes Sebastian’s personality and/or driving style to a tee. Don’t worry if your word has already been submitted, duplicates will all be shown in the final project. This word can either be an adjective or a noun and can be in either English or German. You must also leave a note of your first name and country of residency if you would like to be included in the birthday card which will be exchanged along with the gift.
From June 1st, a poll will be created and it will be your role to choose your favourite photo of Sebastian out of the three offered. Once your words have been compiled, and you have also come to an agreement on which photo you feel suits the project best, all your words will be illustrated in a mosaic copy of that photo.
Hopefully you can now visualise our theme: ‘A picture paints thousands of words.’ Your words will paint a picture of Sebastian and the picture of Sebastian will speak volumes. Realistically, we don’t expect thousands of entries but we would thoroughly appreciate it if you could work with us to spread the word and make Seb’s birthday a little sweeter.
The final deadline is June 8th as I will be travelling for five weeks from June 10th and would like to ensure that everything is in place by the time I leave the United Kingdom.
Sebastian’s will turn 26 on July 3rd and our hope is to hand deliver the finalised portrait to him at the Nazionale Piloti match in Germany on that very night.
Thank you in advance for participating. We could never dream of doing this without you.
