Cameron Reed

I'm 29-years old and live in Vancouver, BC.

I'm the Digital Strategist at TruthFool Communications, providing unique, full-scale creative & strategic services for social change. I've worked with such clients as Greenpeace, Vision Vancouver, the Canadian Tourism Commission, and Knorr.

I'm a musician with two EPs on Warp Records.

I'm the Festival Director of an independent, week-long cultural festival and a day-long annual outdoor concert.

I'm the co-Executive Producer of a Leo Award-nominated comedy web-series & compilation album.

I co-founded a website that highlights some of the more egregious shit our Prime Minister has done.

I helped produce, write, and act in a short comedy series for CTV's 2011 election coverage.

I hold a Bachelor of Communication from Simon Fraser University. Whatever.

I'm balding and consequently own a couple hats.

- The revival of the Right is as extraordinary as it would be if the public had demanded dozens of new nuclear power plants in the days after the Three Mile Island disaster; if we had reacted to Watergate by making Richard Nixon a national hero.

  Xenia Rebinos - Pan y Cafe
  
  jawnita:
  
  THE GOD XENIA RUBINOS sent me her new video, for “Pan y Cafe,” which is like barrio noise-pop and obviously my shit x302301802012. Still working thru her new album, Magic Trix, but it’s got a new version of “Los Mangopaunos” on there which, if you ever listened to my radio show, you know that was the unofficial theme song for like 5 months. SPEAKING OF WHICH, I will be playing more Xenia and a bunch of other awesome new jams today on East Village Radio, 4-6 PM ET. YOU CAN LISTEN FROM ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! WHICH IS THE POINT!

  “Barrio Noise-Pop”. I can get behind this.

    The Party is a group of independent Vancouver based comedians, writers, performers, film professionals and digital strategists. Together we form a comprehensive and highly efficient creative production and promotion unit. Each member of our group brings a unique set of talents to every project, creating a modern-day version of Orson Welles’ Mercury Theatre (but with more Facebook). After The Party’s website, ShitHarperDid.com received 4.1 million hits in its first 72 hours online, CTV News commissioned the group to produce a comedy series to compliment the national network’s election coverage. In just 10 days, the group wrote, shot, and edited a high quality five-episode series about a group of young Canadians who start their own political party. The mini-series garnered critical and audience acclaim.
