Bridging the Gap After School Program

Bridging the Gap’s after school program (for parents who struggle financially) was the subject of my video for first year’s multimedia class. Even though the multimedia piece didn’t exactly pan out to be something I’m proud to show (Tyler did forewarn us that our first stab at Final Cut may be less than perfect...), here’s a few stills that I enjoy from the project. The photo of Hayley and the chalkboard is still a picture I’m proud of, especially given the hectic circumstances it was taken.
