/&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Gérald Pierre&lt;span&gt; was&lt;/span&gt; born and raised in Cap-Haitien, Haiti and is 100% Créole. &lt;span&gt;Known&lt;/span&gt; by his friends as “G&lt;span&gt;,"&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;he&lt;/span&gt; speaks three languages, Créole, French, and  English. G&lt;span&gt;, with his&lt;/span&gt; passion for the arts and has created many works using paint, brush, pencil, and camera. &lt;span&gt;This lead him to receive his Bachelor of Arts in Professional Photography in 2006 from the prestigious Brooks Institute in Santa Barbara, California. Various groups he has been involved with have seen his special abilities and he has worked as the stylist and fashion consultant for the New Life Choir of Spring Valley, New York and is currently a member of the design team with Jubilee Christian Church in Goleta, California. He truly has an innate sense of style and design which he is able to combine with his creative and technical expertise. The final result is a product that is truly captivating and revolutionary. He understands that fashion isn't about a price tag or a name brand, but how it is presented, and his heart is to help everyone see the beauty and value within them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2566489356400668689-6832427101985403163?l=planetaryvillage.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://planetaryvillage.blogspot.com/feeds/6832427101985403163/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://planetaryvillage.blogspot.com/2010/01/gerald-pierre.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2566489356400668689/posts/default/6832427101985403163'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2566489356400668689/posts/default/6832427101985403163'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://planetaryvillage.blogspot.com/2010/01/gerald-pierre.html' title='Gérald Pierre'/><author><name>Creceda</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04800886293719190377</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ed0BTkOCAYQ/S31gI0AzyUI/AAAAAAAAAC4/bffqO_j0iqY/S220/SMP_Creceda_Boudoir_01.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2566489356400668689.post-7327742731459983944</id><published>2010-01-26T12:54:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-26T12:56:28.086-08:00</updated><title type='text'>IN OUR SHOES</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ed0BTkOCAYQ/S19W6YfzgsI/AAAAAAAAACw/4WqWDkBWYhI/s1600-h/image.png"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 256px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ed0BTkOCAYQ/S19W6YfzgsI/AAAAAAAAACw/4WqWDkBWYhI/s320/image.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431155236640359106" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2566489356400668689-7327742731459983944?l=planetaryvillage.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://planetaryvillage.blogspot.com/feeds/7327742731459983944/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://planetaryvillage.blogspot.com/2010/01/in-our-shoes.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2566489356400668689/posts/default/7327742731459983944'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2566489356400668689/posts/default/7327742731459983944'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://planetaryvillage.blogspot.com/2010/01/in-our-shoes.html' title='IN OUR SHOES'/><author><name>Creceda</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04800886293719190377</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ed0BTkOCAYQ/S31gI0AzyUI/AAAAAAAAAC4/bffqO_j0iqY/S220/SMP_Creceda_Boudoir_01.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ed0BTkOCAYQ/S19W6YfzgsI/AAAAAAAAACw/4WqWDkBWYhI/s72-c/image.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2566489356400668689.post-1598685127440505617</id><published>2010-01-21T12:49:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-21T12:49:40.205-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Great People Doing Great Things</title><content type='html'>&lt;img alt="Ef_13" src="http://aura1.gaia.com/photos/11/102218/large/ef_13.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 5px; margin-bottom: 0.5em;" /&gt;                   &lt;div&gt; Help me rock the world. I am creating a TV pilot that “Promotes Great People Doing Great Things” that is visually stimulating, inspiring, and offers avenues that anyone can contribute to making the world a better place due in part to the essential need for mass distribution of positive media and because it rocks my world to do so. I strongly believe in the fine words of Gandhi that “You have to be the change in the world that you wish to see.” Using my strengths in filmmaking, communication, networking, creative clothing construction with my intense desire to have a positive impact on the world this TV show became the perfect solution. I cannot express enough how excited we are to pursue “Great People Doing Great Things” at full throttle to share with the public fashion designers, suppliers, dyers, company owners, businesses, architects, teachers, inventors, entrepreneurs, filmmakers, artists, non-profit organizations environmentalists, and buyers that implement business and manufacturing practices that are socially and environmentally responsible in a way that is visually stimulating. The first episode of this proposed series is about Ethical Fashion [fashionable clothing that is ethically and ecologically responsible. This means that the materials and manufacturing respect people and the environment.] We have been fortunate to have already filmed and photographed so many great people and events. Currently, there are two of us doing the work (producing, directing, filming, editing, marketing, photographing, (d) all of the above) and before the flood gates can be let open we are looking for sponsors and executive producers to fund the project. This is not a part time project, thus needs to hire a dynamic full time crew, research department, public relation coordinator, and marketing specialist. We are looking for 5 million to launch our program. What’s in it for you? 1. A positive, beautiful program promoting great people doing great things 2. Your name or Logo in the credits and distribution material 3. Your name or logo with a link to you or your business in our upcoming visual directory (international advertising). 4. Involvement in an amazing global movement of individuals and businesses that are actively making the world a better place through their practices. 5. Insurance that your children and your children’s children will live in a more beautiful, healthy, and people friendly world. What has been accomplished to date? Currently featured in the first segment are interviews with High Fashion Eco Designer Deborah Lindquist, Summer Bowen of BTCelements (www.btcelements.com) an organic and fair trade online company, Reconstructive Designer Lindsay Miller, Eric Cardenas at the Environmental Defense Council, Treehugger, Miss Rhode Island and the Organic Clothing and Accessory Companies Loomstate, Edun, EcoGanik, and Stewart Brown. Footage from the Ethical Fashion Show in Paris, France and Project Las Vegas a Fashion Trade Show where Deborah Lindquist, Loomstate, and Edun exhibited also supplements the piece. This is to name just a few. Shannon Griffith (producer, cinematographer) and I (Creceda J. LeMaire creator, diretor, producer, camera gal, editor, etc.) recently filmed and photographed the Ethical Fashion Show at the Tapis rouge in Paris, France on October 13th, 14th 15th, and 16th “A CREATIVE FUSION OF FASHION AND SOCIAL CONSCIENCE.” [www.ethicalfashionshow.com] Were we met some of the most influential names in Ethical Fashion. I would like to thank Brooks Institute of Photography for their contribution towards the filming of this event. The train’s mov’en, go ahead and jump on the bandwagon. It’s hot, gorgeous, great for the senses, environmentally friendly, socially responsible, beneficial for all ages, makes you want to dance, and lasts more than a lifetime. Join the world of rockstars (defined as great people doing great things) and contact us at: (818) 749-5999 you will converse with me (Creceda J.

I've learned (and continue to learn) through reprogramming and practice this truth.   I now know that any change internally and externally happens when I change.  When Gandhi says be the change, he means Be the change. I tried to Make Change by changing others...haha, that's why I am laughing now.  After years of internal strif, I let go and surrendered to the divine energy that lives within each of us (with a few possible exceptions, but I still believe that we all have spirit even if it is a spiritual residue).  By surrendering to this infinite power, I know with every ounce of my being to change anything we, I must first be that change within myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;From the time I was a youngster until my early to twenties I HAD TO SAVE THE WORLD. (hahahaha) I gave myself no other option in life, except to do whatever I could to save the world.* Even as an adolescent, I saw the injustice in the world, the hate, pain, misery, cruelty (ok, deep inhale...now, Exhale and smile, giggle...Ok, good) cruelty, drugs, domestic violence, racism....and it made me sick. I thought that I had to do everything in my power to change the minds and hearts of all the wrongdoers in the world and those standing idly by, unchanging and uncaring. I fiercely expressed my emotions through art and writing which has brought me to the present day. I carry the same passion with a smile and a very different perspective.  I am only affected by that and those whom I choose to affect me.  I know without a shadow of a doubt that I attract all people and situations to me that are in my life, which forever evolve and expand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I was skimming through one of my journals from Ghana, I found an article titled "Be the Change you want to see". I am sharing with you the great people that the article is about and what they are doing to make the world a better place.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'
