You’re probably wondering if everyone had a great time here. Well, I didn’t.
I had a superb time! I loved being with the girls in group 5. I liked how I could make everyone in my group laugh and even though I didn’t do it right at all, I liked how the girls taught me how to make a lanyard. I love the lunch times we spent together sipping cappuccinos and laughing. I loved how we made hilarious skits together, totally improved. I loved our free time together, cutting out pictures, singing, talking, listening to music, joking and anything else fun. I loved everything about this place except waking up too early and how early it ended.

My favorite part about this program was using the cameras for anything we wanted to film. Behind the camera was fun because we were all really hyper and crazy, but in front of the big professional camera it was kind of scary because no kind of camera ever filmed me before. It was great after the first couple times in front of that camera because I got to use it. We made bracelets, finger print pictures, collages, mellowed out and took quizzes in the uniquely ME! books and goofed around at the end of the day when the parents started coming. We talked about anger and how to deal with it. We talked about mellowing out and body language. When we had free time, I made lots of bats with expressions and accessories and called them “batfuls”. This program is fun and I would definitely come back next year.

By attending the uniquely ME! Film Institute, I have made a lot of new friends and learned a lot about the behind the scenes work that is involved with media. Editing, filming, white balancing, fire wire are just a few of the techniques I learned about camera work. Another memory that I will always have from being at this camp, is the band that my friends and I put together. It was called the Spicey Ladies. We each had our own spice name and wrote our own songs. This camp absolutely boosted my self-esteem and I made life-long friends that I will never forget and will continue to stay in touch with. I will absolutely go to this Film Institute. I have PMA (positive mental attitude) and I am proud.

I liked being able to use the camera and meeting new people from places you don’t go to everyday. Through the week we did a lot of camera shooting and me and Sheila didn’t like being in front of the camera. (Unfortunately we had to anyways but we easily got over it). Besides camera work, we learned how to deal with stress and being different. We also learned what media was and how commercials put hairspray on hamburgers to make them stick. We went to Nay Aug Park and made bracelets and collages about what we liked. In the uniquely ME! books was like being different, how to deal with stress, etc. That’s what I liked about the Real Girls in Reel Life Film Institute.
