Dear Peace Folks,

The PSA project is shaping up! This is an opportunity for a small number of motivated people to encourage participation in major war protests to a huge array of audiences across the nation.

We Are Seeking:

• Submissions: music and spot concepts
• A National Distribution Manager -To make contacts with appropriate radio stations across the nation and offer the PSA's to receptive DJ's and Producers
• Script Writers -Brainstorming parties and individual submissions for scripts
• Musicians and Vocalists -Recording sessions scheduled as needed
• Voice Actors -particularly female voices are needed
• Script and Music Writers -Write a quick song...and we'll produce and distribute!
  Self-Assigned Roles -Suggest how you would like to participate

Time is short

DO IT NOW!

You do not need to attend meetings to participate and we will be using cyber-collaboration methods.

Three primary production goals have been identified

• Production of PSA's to produce...
• PSA's promoting the March 17 ANSWER March on the Pentagon
• PSA's promoting the March 24 Stop the Wars Coalition actions in Boston
• Generic PSA's adaptable to promoting future events anywhere

Since a series of many PSA's in different styles are desired, these forms have been suggested

• Celebrity Endorsements
• Plain Folks Endorsements
• Dramatic vignette
• Folk or other Music

Volunteers:

• Mighty Slim (voice of a thousand voices)
• Mike Borkson
• Andy Pratt (andy-pratt.com)
• Freeman Z: (Production Services and Facilities, some scripts and concepts)
• Brian O'Connell

Sample Script

Won't you join me in Washington to march on the Pentagon?

One person really can make a difference.
Together we can stop this war. (music 'til fade)

-Freeman Z
