Hey people,

The Zeitgeist Movement is launching a new campaign aimed at both saturating media with our presence, and putting a face to the broad spectrum of people in our movement. It's a chance for you to express what the zeitgeist movement means to you, and why you support it.

This is strictly voluntary, but it means a lot for you to show your support. There are a lot of childish hit campaigns against the movement, and we need to counter that, not with violence or belligerence, but with sincerity. 

So far the campaign is going really well as people all over the world are responding and posting their videos, but we haven't got a lot of response from our Chicago area people, so I'd like to take a quick second and personally encourage everyone to simply turn on the webcam and show your solidarity, by either discussing reasons you support the movement.. or maybe you even have a personal anecdote you'd like to share. That's how I felt, so decided to make a short film (my attempt at an artsy short film) with my story and my reasonings for supporting the movement. Most people are just making these with a webcams, so dont think you need to be a film maker to participate, haha :)  Check it out:

As always... Peter always says it best... so check out his video that he created to launch the campaign



If you'd like to make a video, but aren't sure how you would do it, just go on you tube (search: Why I Advocate The Zeitgeist Movement) and check out the many examples that are already present. If you do make a video, please post a link to your video on this thread so we can all check it out! Also, one of the Z-Teams will likely be creating a short movie compiled from all the videos people are submitting.

*Update*



If you go to the news page on the TZMillinois.org site, there is a news article I posted about this campaign. If you would like your video embedded on the website, let me know and Ill add it to that news page.

I've already done this with Peter's video and my video. 

So if you make a video and you'd like me to embed it on the website, just let me know.

So with this video, after it's made it should be posted to youtube?
Beside putting it on youtube and having it embedded in the website, is
there anywhere else that it should be posted?

Hey Kate,


Yea, it should be uploaded to youtube. It doesn't need to be posted
anywhere else, unless you personally want to post it around to get
more views. If you want me to post it on this site, I can, but thats
totally optional.

Well done David. As always, succinct and clear. Sums up the way
society just blindly accepts the monetary policy.
Proud of you! (And it nice to see your mug... :) )

Yes. It's been on repeat for me for quite some time. It is my boost of inspiration regularly.

No, I didn't catch. Is there any other way I could see it?
