Video, Editing, Progresssssss
This first month at UTEC has definitely been activity filled! We have a bunch of programs and activities planned... a youth show, promo spots, commercials, a documentary.. etc (only etc because we seem to add to the list daily) All of the activity is great, lately I've been filming UTEC events and editing them along with LTC's VISTA .. Thomas K. Everything is going well so far and as I organize the various projects I know that things will only get better... Alot of fun, alot of filming and alot of editing... that's what I signed up for and I hope things continue to go in that direction as far as my work. I know that my supervisors want me to become more of a factor in the outreach and street work process here at the Teen Center, but I signed up to mainly use my media skills as a tool to do so.. I hope I can show them, that I will truly be more useful as a silent behind the scenes type director of the media movement as opposed to a direct link between media and Lowell's youth... but as my comfort level with Teens in general increases I wouldn't be surprised if sometime in the future, I find myself working directly with Teens and enjoying it. Only time and progress will tell...

Good work, and I hope you can throw up a link to all the videos and whatnot you are editing/producing.
And, yeah, you might have to grow into outreach, so just keep an open mind to it.
