XFN is undertaking perhaps the biggest fan project in television/motion picture history and in the words of Fox Mulder, "These people need my help."

These people being us, my being you, well, you get the picture.

As "The X-Files" is a worldwide phenomenon, we feel this needs to be a worldwide project with participation from individuals and groups across the globe.

Without giving too much away (in true "X-Files" fashion we are keeping much of it under wraps), XFN is asking fans to film themselves in their hometowns across the world.

While filming at recognizable locations such as "Big Ben" or the "Eiffel Tower" would be fantastic, it is not required.

We need two clips from each fan or fan group to be kept under one minute, 30 seconds each.

Clip 1: We are asking fans to yell THE PHRASE "Where we are from!" to the camera. You can also shout in your native languages.

Clip 2: Include a clock. It can be any kind of clock, provided we can see it (think clock tower, or even a large clock someone can hold up) with the time set to 10:13. We are asking fans to yell, "Where we are from, it's always 10:13!"to the camera. You can also shout in your native languages.

The scope of this fan project is unprecedented and XFN will be releasing it towards the end of November as a "Thank You" to both "The X-Files" and fans around the world as we rally together to generate buzz for the upcoming DVD release of "The X-Files: I Want to Believe."

Clips may be sent electronically or via regular mail and XFN is working out those particulars now. For more information, please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Now, by electronically, where do you want these sent? This is my first venture to the site! I haven't done quite a lot of "net surfing" for the X-Files, I'm ashamed to admit but I heard about this through facebook and definitely want to take part! :)

Hey poucky! To answer your question about distance, if there are a few of you, I would love to see as much of you as possible. If there are a lot of you, feel free to back up the camera. This project is about scope, number, feeling...so individuals and smaller groups would have closer shots than those with larger amounts of people. I am going to do mine soon so I can put up the clip to give you an example :)

something smaller? Ha ha ha, but I suppose I should have thought about
the people behind it a little bit more!
You always keep me guessing that's for certain. Here's to your brains
who have probably been over saturated with either wheat thins, or venezuelan chocolate.
