Make a super scary movie trailer of a visit to somewhere completely boring or normal (like a DMV – but now you can’t use that). You are not allowed to use any “jump scare” scare tactics, or actors. The suspense can only be created via how you shoot ordinary objects or people, and the score.

Item 19 – Face Your Fears
CALLING ALL GISHERS: There’s one Thing you have always wanted to do, but you’re scared. Maybe it’s skydiving, riding a motorcycle, holding a tarantula, singing in public, or cliff diving… You get the idea. By the end of GISH week at least 3 gishers on your team will spit in the eye of fear, vanquish it and do their Thing. Submit a video compilation of each member of your team first explaining what they are scared to try (before they do it) and then, after they Do the Thing, telling us how it went.
Item 13 – Contagious Laughter
Laughter is contagious, and you’re “patient zero.” Lay on your back and have someone put their head on your stomach. Then keep adding to the chain of people (heads on stomachs) and make the longest chain of people you can— minimum 10 people. Then give a deep, sustained, belly laugh and let it ripple through your chain. Bonus points for the laughter chain with most participants, so spread the mirth like there is no cure. Post your video on social media using #GISHTHEBESTMEDICINE. Submit your video to us along with a link to your social media post in the comment field.

Item 1 – Jell-O Throw
Feed a friend an entire bowl of jello or chocolate pudding using a plastic spoon while they are sitting in a chair wearing a white t-shirt. Oh, and you must be standing at least 3 feet away and you must feed your friend by “flicking” the jello into their mouth.
