Cameron Reed
I'm 29-years old and live in Vancouver, BC.
I'm a Copywriter and Digital Strategist. My client history includes Vision Vancouver, Canadian Tourism Commission, Vancity, Canadian Union of Public Employees, Knorr Canada, CTV News, Greenpeace, BC Hydro, and BC Dairy.
I am currently working for TruthFool Communications. We provide unique full-scale creative & strategic services for social change.
I'm a musician with two EPs on Warp Records under the unfortunate moniker Babe Rainbow. I am currently the touring band for How To Dress Well.
I was the Festival Director of an independent, week-long cultural festival and a day-long annual outdoor concert for about 9 years.
I was the Executive Producer of a Leo Award-nominated comedy web-series & compilation album.
I co-founded a website that highlights some of the shit Prime Minister Stephen Harper has done.
I helped produce, write, and act in a short comedy series for CTV's 2011 election coverage.
I recently started writing about Canadian politics for Vice Magazine. So you should probably Google that.
I hold a Bachelor of Communication from Simon Fraser University. Whatever.
I'm balding and consequently own a couple hats.

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.
