The Ham’s Take
Unlike many of the “Celebrities Read Mean Tweets” knock offs, this video captures intimate moments of a harsh reality–the dehumanization of an entire group of people in our society. These intimate moments and the seemingly real responses from the people in the video make for a thought-provoking piece by Fort York VFX (production company). You can also visit humansforhumans.ca and view the whole campaign, including direct responses from the people in the video to the tweets. It’s worth a peek.
