Running and Passing.

I just completed a fun two weeks as Digital Media Instructor for the My Story Summer Camp. The camp, split into 3 sections, each two weeks in length, was held at New Columbia Housing Development Community Center and the Rosa Parks Boys & Girls Club in North Portland. My section met during the final 2 week period and we worked on developing communication, digital media, and arts skills. The class utilized the Rosa Parks elementary school computer lab and the Boys & Girls Club’s Media Literacy / Arts room. The completed work was shown in a mini-art show and poster prints of the students work will be showcased around the club.

The student photography was done with Holga cameras and Fuji color film. The negatives were scanned and the students utilized Sumo Paint to edit their photos and create alternative digital imagery. Below are selected photographs and creative works.
