Hello world. Got some news for you. Me and my new partner Patrick are doing really well together. It seems we are a great team complementing each other every time. My calm personality matches his fired up and active character. He handles contacts and ideas while i concentrate on faster productivity, material, design-wise part. Soon i will also start editing videos for Ribbsaeter Productions.
I have redesigned our company logo. As a logo tells a lot about a company and its features, i wanted our Ribbsaeter Productions logo to be vibrant, to show we are serious but modern, open minded, event planners. Here it is:
I am really content with it. It took lots of work, but i put a lot of passion into it. As i always say, when you work passionately on something, you never ever get tired, you just want to see the finished product. It’s always worth the long hours, after you see the product of your labour.
Now for some serious stuff. Me and Patrick have just created a foundation called Ribbsaeter Foundation. It is a non-profit organization, which is trying to stop animal abuse and testing. We are especially focused right now on getting the elephants out of Bangkok’s streets. We have organized a new PETA Ad-Campaign in the middle of May intending to shoot nude as many celebrities that are fighting against animal abuse, have done. 8 models are going to pose, in chains, locked in cages, whipped, full of blood trying to show what animals are going through. Here are the details:
1. Main press shot: group of models behind a banner reading 'The Naked
Truth: Elephants Should Be Free. Possibly outdoor or in Studio (To be
finalized).
2. Shoot someone naked in a Bamboo cage like the ones they use for breaking
elephants.
3. Shoot another 'Beaten, Shackled, Abused' ad with a woman crouched on the
ground in shackles with whip marks on her back.
4. Whips and Chains Are For The Bedroom, Not For Elephants, ad with
Patrick and maybe 2 female models posing in a bed.
5. Shoot someone in a cage for an image that could be used for our campaign
against the Pata Zoo.
We also needed a logo for the organization so i gladly got back to the drawing board. I wanted the logo to reflect friendliness, earthly warmth, peace, the power of nature and to show what we are fighting for. I put a lot of heart into it and i think you can see that. I am glad i can help by any means possible.
If any of you would has some words to share with us, please do not hesitate to contact me or my partner at the following e-mail addresses.

As a personal side note now: I have always wanted to help in wildlife preservations. As a kid i grew up watching Animal Planet and Discovery Channel. I always felt the need to give a hand to organizations around the world, to volunteer to help. It didn’t matter, i could have gone in the jungle eating rice and leaves for 6 months, i just wanted to help. That’s how i am.
Everything revolves so much around money these days. I don’t have any attraction for it. Life has so many things to offer except money. I could not do much at home though. Now i feel so content and happy that i can be part of a campaign that tries to fight animal abuse. I am really enthusiastic about the shoot and the future plans we are going to put into motion in the years to come.
I know things are slow nature-wise, though i’ve seen some progress, world organizations starting to put some leg into saving this planet from destruction. Progress is slow but we should be thankful for every step we take to make this world a better place.
Maybe a shoot won’t save the elephants, but at least we hope it will make people more aware of what’s going on in the world.
Unbound yourself from monotony, stop wasting time on the internet, doing nothing, spending money on things you really don’t need, open your eyes and see that we are destroying this planet, the equilibrium that it was created with. T
here are many networks on the internet, people exchanging opinions, trying to help or be part of the process of planet preservation. Why don’t you just join some of them? I am sure you will find shocking information that you would have otherwise never come across.
For any feedback, opinions, help, simple words you may want to address, please feel free to e-mail me -- > dumalexandru@gmail.com. We also have a group on facebook you can join if you may wish.
That’s about it my readers, i have to continue my work now. Hope you are well and always remember to live you day as it is you last. Enjoy life, it is truly a miracle!
