Hi everyone.
I am writing to let you all know that I had an idea that seems to be coming together better for having it only a couple of weeks ago, than I could ever imagine. I am talking about a World Pillow Fight Day photo collages. I have asked photogrpaher friends of mine to collaborate on a project that would take photos of this fight in as many of the participating cities as possible. This year, I was only able to get Seattle, Boston, L.A., Houston and Sydney. Not too shabby for asking only 2 weeks ago. My project would be to take photos from all the cities and combine them to make one poster sized collage, celebrating this inspiring event.
My friend in Boston moved this project a little further by talking with her local newsman, who was very interested in this human interest story. He is currently awaiting my contributions and a small interview with the mastermind, me! I called Fox 13, as I heard they might be coming to film this story, and told them of this project as well and the interest in it by the Boston news. She told me that she thought this truely would make a great human interest story and she would like to participate as long as nothing more exciting came along. Like what else could BE more exciting than a bunch of people having at thee with pillows flying? I dont know!!! I would, also, like to get some of the people in the club to pose for a few shots afterwards (or before your chioce) to put on the collage, itself. Accross the bottom will read
2008 World Pillow Fight Day.......where are you??
I am thinking of putting these posters on sale and all profits going to Worlld Wildlife Fund so that a world orginized event can help support a world charitable orginization. It is my hope, anyway. Please let me know what you think of all this...kind of overwhelming in my eyes, but I am sure I can handle it...as a photographer, I couldn't ask for a better shoot. I would like to thank each and every one of you who participate in these fun events for giving me pleanty of opportunities for photos. Thank you very much to Brooke and the other founding memebers for putting the mature adult aside and go ply with pillows in public. Good luck tonight,,,

Re: World PillowFight Day collage...
Sat, March 22, 2008 - 11:42 PMDawn, you are a DELIGHT! Check out www.pillowfightday.com, you can get in touch with the NewMindSpace crew. They got all the organizers organized ;-)
The reports from other cities have been rolling into my inbox. I'll forward numbers as I have them. So far, New York is the winner with
5,000-8,000 pillow fighters!!!!!! Yes, you read that correctly. You should see the photos! A sea of feathers 6 inches deep.
I wonder how their mayor will respond... :-)
