Week 5

Last week was Spring Break and I went up to NYC. I went more for a vacation, but being that I was headed up to the big apple, I took a camera along with me. I filmed the school's exterior in Brooklyn as well as a few other school-related things. The school is in a really sketchy side of Brooklyn and I was really nervous about being there. While walking from the 'nice' side of Brooklyn to the school, we had to pass the projects and the really rough part. I can really see why so many parents were hesitant about sending their children to the school. But alas I was able to get some usable footage for the final doc. I believe Abby and Faiza worked on constructing a roughly 20 minute outline of interview footage for the final. I have not seen it yet, but we are meeting tomorrow, so I'll see it then.
