ze frank

If you guys have never heard of Ze Frank, have I got a treat for you. He's this dude who has a talent for getting a bunch of creative people together to work on projects and without fail, each one of them makes me smile and brings a bit of light into the word. Here are some of my favorites.

The Chillout Song


One of Ze's blog readers was feeling stressed out and asked him to write a song to make her feel better. He quietly asked some other people to sing along to some lyrics he wrote. Then he mixed it all together to create a song performed by strangers all hoping to help someone feel better. Here's the song, and I urge you to click this link to read the touching backstory.




Stumpy


Ze saw a photo of a duck that had been born with four legs. He wrote a story about it and asked his readers to illustrate it. Then he put it all together and made this video:

This is another song he wrote that makes me smile. It's like a hug for your ears.



Happy Thursday, Ya'll. :)
