The past Monday, I just emerged from a grueling few weeks in the Final Cut isolation chamber and proudly gave birth to my latest video, the Parent Revolution.
The Parent Revolution is coming…as soon as we get these lights set up.
So at this point I’m thinking that I won’t have to hear about it for a while, since the official launch isn’t until May. But before I can even kick up my feet, my inbox starts going crazy!
I started getting e-mails filled with great feedback (no hate mail yet, knock on wood) from some very awesome people; people who are way too important to be watching my videos.
Like Deborah Alvarez-Rodriguez, the CEO of Goodwill, who “used your video as an example of low cost messaging that sticks.” She said she dreamed about it last night and cannot get it out of her head.”
And Mary Jane Stevenson, Obama’s statewide Field Director, who wrote, “That is simply awesome. I’m forwarding it on. Really, really good. I love it.”
Even the first Executive Director of The Gates Foundation chimed in! Tom Vander Ark wrote a blog post about the Parent Revolution and titled it, “This video will change LA, then USA”
Wow, just wow. For someone who spent the past few months working his butt off to make this, those kind words felt really, really good. I’m still convinced that they saw another video by accident, but for now, I’ve still got a goofy smile plastered on my face. Thank you guys so much, that meant a lot to me.
