Hello fellow Steemers! An awesome idea just came in mind yesterday while I was at work and I wanted to share it with everyone and see what you guys think! Before I tell ya'll the idea, let me provide some background on my life and how I believe this is a great opportunity for me to grow and for me to contribute to this community the best way I know how. If you guys like the idea, please upvote and comment so I can know if this is something that the community wants more of. Thank you!
What I do
I am currently doing background work for movies/tv shows pretty much full time. What is background work? If you've ever watched The Walking Dead or any other tv show or movie, then you see zombies, normal everyday civilians walking in the city, or any non important character in a production, generally known as extras. That is what I do. Because tv is so big where I live right now (Atlanta), I can pretty much work almost everyday if I wanted to. I started doing this about a month ago and so far, I like it a lot. Not because I want to pursue a career in acting, although that would be pretty cool, but because I get to meet a lot of new and different people. After working background for a while now, I realize that we have a LOT of downtime and I've been wanting to do something productive with that time. I usually read, or browsing and commenting on Steemit, or just talking and meeting new people during the downtime where the directors don't need us for the scenes they are shooting. I was starting to get a little bored on set, until yesterday when I got an idea that excited me a lot!
The Idea
I thought to myself, "it would be pretty cool if I just spent a whole day with someone I just met and not just get to know them, but build a lasting relationship with them". That was when I started thinking of ways I could make this idea bigger and better. Before long, I had a mission and a core set of things I wanted to get to learn about the other person.
My mission is to build 100 relationships that will last with complete strangers!
I will be vlogging and posting it on my youtube and I'll also be blogging about each person that I get to meet on Steemit. This is my way of contributing to this community and hopefully, the people that I build relationships with will want to check out the vlog/blog I post about them and they will end up on Steemit and hopefully join the community themselves.
Thank you for reading! Remember to upvote and leave a comment if you like the idea or have any suggestions! This helps me a lot in seeing what I can do better. Again, thank you for helping build this community together with everyone on Steemit!
Peace. ✌️
Love. ❤️
Unity. ✊️
