The Homeless

Boy it is cold outside! The temperature has been hitting sub zeros much of the Mid-West this week. I am so fortunate to have a nice heated home, warm food and a loving family to be with. I do take it for granted at times as there are so many out there that are homeless, cold and hungry every day.

A few months ago a friend of mine, Prem from Arising Images, emailed me asking if I would like to go to a homeless bar-b-q in Detroit and use our talents and capture images and film. I did not hesitate and welcomed the opportunity. I then recruited Jamie from Jamie Honce Productions to assist me in the shoot. To be honest, I had no idea what I was going to film or thought out a story that I was going to tell with my film. I just went and filmed what I could and worried about how to put it together later.

With the cold weather hitting this week, it reminded me of the homeless people out there. I thought it would be a good time to edit this piece and share it with everyone. For those that have a blog, feel free to post this video as there is no watermark. I think it is an important message to share. Thanks Prem for the pics and Jamie for working with me on this project.
