More about How Do I Look:
"How Do I Look was created by artistic activist Wolfgang Busch to empower the Ballroom community, which we know of from the Madonna video "Vogue", "Truth or Dare" and the movie Paris is Burning. The Ballroom community is one of the most creative and hardest hit HIV/AIDS community and we tell the story 'straight' out. How Do I Look is a tool to showcase our talents, brings the Ballroom community together, gain artistic and human respect, provides hands on video production/post production training, improves the quality of life and sends HIV/AIDS awareness messages through the many we lost to AIDS and the ones living with HIV now."
