  2. Hi Shaneika,

    You are your buddies most definitely have a passion for video! So I think this would be a great project.
    What you'll need to do, ASAP, is get your mentors and field work set up. You also need to find a good project...your Film Fest entry is a good one, but I think it was mostly done previous to this project and definitely before your mentoring...
    So you'll need to find a more recent product...one that will incorporate your Project Icarus learning.
    Let me know if you need help or have questions.
    Assessment Score: ES (4-)
