Letters from the Apocalypse - Part 5 [ ASMR Viewer-driven Fan-fiction ]

Welcome to episode 5 of Letters from the Apocalypse, a post-apocalyptic ASMR fan-fiction series driven by viewer & subscriber contributions.

L.F.T.A. tells the story of an Nth generation Clemmons who lives in a post-apocalyptic earth of some reality and is taking care of someone (the viewer) while also collecting letters, from personal stories to secret documents, that have been scattered to the wind, as he tries to piece together what happened.

Technical notes: Filming in front of a fire was challenging, between my camera not keeping focus and unable to control the light and seeing the letters. I should have also used a candle. But, c'est la vie! I had to try it at least once. Apologies for the video quality especially to the contributors. But hopefully as most of you know, it's not about the visuals, it's about what's the letters have to say. I still plan to make more videos like this as I like the effect, I just have to work on some things.

If you would like to take part in this series, below are some guidelines you can follow:

1. Use your imagination! Put yourself into a post-apocalyptic mindset and write or type a letter to a loved one, as a member of a secret organization, a personal diary, or something more!
2. Typed letters should be kept to 1 side of one page, since it can contain more paragraphs and words than a handwritten letter.
3. Handwritten letters can be 2 to 3 sides max (unless you send in multiple pages and space your writing).
4. Your letter should not contain your full real name. First names are okay. This is for your own privacy and security of course.
5. Get creative! Dab your paper with a wet tea bag or soak it in coffee, and tear and/or burn the edges to give it that worn, old look and then throw it in the oven to bake at 200 degrees Fahrenheit. I spent about 3 hours myself doing this to most of the letters in Part 2, so I can't do this with every video or all the letters myself unfortunately.

Tingle on,

What is ASMR?

ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and is the current (non-scientific) name given to the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering and personal attention.

My videos are not only meant to help induce ASMR or "tingles", but also help provide a relaxing, calming and soothing experience for the viewer while helping to relieve their anxiety relief, stress relief, insomnia relief, to help those suffering with PTSD or depression, to serve as a study aid and much more.
