Hey everyone!
Many new things happening. New haircut and color (I'm black now!) Sweeney Todd is opening (www.hendersoncivictheater.com) I have a new cat, everyone in my life is still going insane, Much happening in the world of Chelsea's sister! But for now, lets focus on two things i love.
Everyone loves dance. Its the arm waving, hip shaking, ridiculous looking body movement healer of the soul. There is a dance or genre of dance for every occasion. And most occasions intended to be fun include dance. And Film; If a picture is worth a thousand words, trillions of them put together to make a moving sequence otherwise known as a "video" is worth several billion, right? Something along those lines. With over 20 hours of video's uploaded every day to youtube, and 2 Billion on youtube and google combined, its clear you can get the word out about anything with a little film. Why not equality? Come to think of it, WHY NOT DANCE for equality too?! (Or better yet, combine the two and video tape us dancing for equality?!)
I've recently joined a FANTASTIC organization known as "TAG" (Tyler Area Gays) They are a gay rights group/community type of deal. They get together and do everything awesome you can imagine. Anything from just hanging out and having a good time to getting down to business and fighting for the rights we all deserve. And better yet, they walk their talk! Everyone is invited. LGBTQ's, straight ally's, family members, friends, anyone interested!
In joining them, i suggested a ballroom club and a film production club.
For the ballroom club, what i had in mind was a dance night. Just like any other dance night, but gay friendly! An open dance floor. A short lesson at the beginning so everyone knows how to dance to SOMETHING. It'd be much fun, with no gender oriented rules or obligations. And i KNOW I'm not the only one who gets annoyed by stuff like that!
As far as film production goes, we'd be a team. A team of film makers. We'd get together and make short (or maybe a little longer then short) video's promoting equal rights, love, peace, tolerance, acceptance, and whatever else we see fit. What fun! And all for a good cause!
Please, join! Support something good! NONE of this can happen unless i get enough people to join!
Go to www.tridd.com to learn all about TAG. To join click "Join TAG" (obviously...) Make sure to click "Film making" and "Ballroom dance" in the interestests section!
Can't do it without you!
