Ask your friends or family if they want to get involved or if they have a video camera that you could use. Even cell phones let you record video on them. 

If you are good at illustrating then draw an animation on the computer or by hand and scan it in.

Think about what acts of kindness you have seen lately, or kind things you could have done. Keep in mind the visual appearance, the story line and the audio.

Find some actors - or if you see something happening throughout the day, tell the people about your project and ask if you can video them re-creating the act.

Some ideas to get you started:

• Helping an old lady across the street
• Picking up a dropped coin
• Offering your jacket to a friend on a cold day
