About Me

My name is Adam Fulford. I was born in Mexico, where my father was working, and grew up in Canada and Argentina. I first became interested in film as a teenager in Argentina, when I saw the propaganda films of Argentina’s murderous dictatorships including those broadcast during the Falklands/Malvinas war. I have also lived and worked in Saudi Arabia and China, where I worked in film and television, learned to speak Mandarin, and met my wife. When I moved to Vancouver, I decided to pursue my interest in screenwriting and founded the “ West End Screenwriters’ Club ,” where screenwriters provide feedback to each other on completed scripts and works–in-progress. I set up a production company — AdBeau Productions Inc. — with actor Beau Daniels. We have co-produced “Bluey,” a short film – now being developed and marketed both as a TV Series — www.bluey.ca — and as a film that we're co-producing with director James E. Taylor ( www.jamesetaylor.ca ). Other AdBeau Productions projects include psychedelic drama "Paradigm Frequencies," and "Fourteen Million Dreams," a documentary about Lebanon, "Wheels of Fire," a documentary about wheelchair dancers, and "Jamaican Fusion," a cooking show about Jamaican fusion cuisine.

Hello,

I want to let you know about something good. I'm talking about ways to combat the fascistic corporate attacks against your way of life. It is blogging. One new blogging force about to be unleased that will utilize the latest techologies for guerilla marketing purposes is http://www.blogrush.com

As you know all too well, I'm sure, corrupt decision makers serving out-of-control corporate interests punitively increase rates for small publishers such as the Nation by any means they can conjure. A free guerrilla marketing forum for you to get maximum results for your promotional efforts (and pay nothing) for you to look into is: http://www.dealdotcom.com/

One way or another shifts in the economy affect you. If you're not a work-bot enslaved to exploitative environment-destroying multinational fronts, you're likely to be targeted. The way to offset such attacks is by guerilla marketing and harnessing new technologies. As I mentioned, one extraordinary new innovation that can benefit you if you, say, teach dancing, publish a magazine, sell comics, compose music, make movies, or anything that can become a digital product, or even have physical products for sale is http://www.dealdotcom.com

Media companies fear independent bloggers and journalists such as www.bradblog.com (and, of course, www.nation.com ) not beholden to war-profiteering media megoliths such as NBC (owned by arms contractor General Electric). Their monopoly on the the truth is being threatened, and their propaganda and lies can quickly be exposed, thanks to Internet sources such as www.rawstory.com . Now democracy-hating media giants are doing everything they can to take over the Internet, starting by fighting Internet Neutrality.

Anybody trying to make a living by independent means gets unfairly targeted. How do you offset the forces threatening your ability to survive by independent means? Again, the answer is blog-marketing, utlizing rss feeds to spread the word far and wide such as http://www.blogrush.com

Thanks and all power to you.

Adam Fulford
