Re: [videoblogging] Homeless video blogging

[Randolfe Wicker]

Brett, I've always heard that a lot of homeless or marginal street people are recruited to "play Santa", ring bells for the Salvation ARMY, etc.   I think there could be some great vlogging following someone who has virtually nothing, who then goes and listens to kids Christmas wishes.  I'm sure it is a mixed bag of spoiled brats and poor kids asking for the impossible (which would be touching).   What I want to try to capture (once I figure out where to go) are a bunch of Santa's perhaps getting out of their outfits and talking about their "Santa" jobs that day.  That would be fascinating.     Randolfe (Randy) Wicker   Videographer, Writer, Activist Advisor: The Immortality Institute Hoboken, NJ http://www.randywickerreporting.blogspot.com/ 201-656-3280     ----- Original Message ----- From: Thomas G Henry To: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, November 25, 2005 12:29 AM Subject: Re: [videoblogging] Homeless video blogging awesome! how are you going about teaching folks? im embarking on teaching new media stuff in a community center in the projects.... still just kinda finding my way... advice?
