"Get to Know me First" - Ad Campaign for LGBT Equality

In the wake of Proposition 8's passage in CA, a group of LGBT parents have come together to produce five 30-second commercials telling the stories of our families. These are the ads we never saw during the campaign, which had focus group data that steered them away from presenting the actual LGBT people.

The philosophy is, "If you are going to vote against me, get to know me first."



They are looking to diversify their ads, so if you are an African-American, Asian, or speak Spanish please get in touch with the campaign.

The folks must be CA residents, need not have kids, nor be married, although that is the preference. These couples can be mixed ethnicity and they are looking for geographic diversity (urban/rural). So far, most of our couples live in LA County. They would love some Northern and Central Californians. They would LOVE a family with grown kids who can comment on how marriage equality is good for kids.
