Event Description

Have you ever received mail for someone you don't know?We are making a short dark comedy film inspired by the wrong mail. Eduardo Munez tells the story of a man on the edge.... And a LOT of letters!

The original crowdfunding campaign for the film was funded by 104% on December 6, 2015 (But you can still contribute!). But still we need to collect letters from around the world for use in the film as props. We are looking for mail artists and snail mail lovers to get involved in our project by sending us letters which we can feature in our film.

We are looking for letters, particularly drawn envelopes, mail art and plain envelopes - not postcards. We will have to change the real addresses on the front to the 'fake' address of the character in the film so please leave the address section fairly clear of decoration.

In our film the letters to Mr Eduardo Munez do not get opened - so inside you can write whatever you like. You can use your imagination - who do you think Eduardo Munez is? What kind of mail would he receive?

Once shooting on the film is completed we will video the team opening all the letters we have received! We'll provide everyone who contributes with a password protected video link to watch them all being opened. All letter writers will also receive special thanks in the credits too... Please, be sure to write your sender details on the back of the envelope as the letters will not be opened until after the film is completed! With each letter's writer's permission - we will also publish them on our film Facebook page and our blog.

The address to send your mysterious mail to is:

Mr Eduardo Munez

272 Waterloo Street

Newcastle upon Tyne

NE1 4DJ

UNITED KINGDOM

Deadline: 30 April, 2016
