Sharpshooters and CEM Girls are making a documentary!

In February of 2010, Sharpshooters and the CEM Girls (STARKids) began collaborating with REIGN...the musical trio consisting of Denisha Osbourne, Tomorrow Allen and Deana Barlow (A.K.A. Wenzday Atemz). Between the trips to recording studios, footage from concerts and one on one interviews-Sharpshooters have everything they need to begin editing their first documentary. I'd like to give a special thanks again...to these 3 wonderful women who made the past few months so worthwhile for me and my students. We had a blast, learned a ton and gained a new appreciation for those who give back to their communities.

THANK YOU! I know I won't say it enough.

Check out this video clip (shot and edited by Sharpshooters) REIGN performing at Niagara Falls High school on Tuesday, February 23rd 2010. The footage represents a larger work-in-progress. Even though the video is just a "rough-edit" it still gives you a good idea of the kind of work these ladies do performing under the HEART Program ( a collaboration of Music is Art and the Mental Health Association of Erie County).

So keep checking back with us...The girls are currently working on editing their solo videos. I am working on becoming better at teaching editing in Final Cut. We are all still having fun. It's fantastic knowing that filming for our group documentary about our favorite female hip hop artists is complete. All of us are eager to begin editing our group documentary, but we know we have to take things in stride. The next month is going to be a busy one. We are taking it one step at a time. First we edit solo videos and then we'll tackle our group documentary. Don't be a stranger. I'll be posting new material as soon as we start to make some edits.
