Summer Media Institute 2008
The Summer Media Institute works with the Mayor's Summer Youth Employment program in order to employ Cambridge youth and introduce them to the skills needed to create media that is meaningful and original. Here is media that was created by youth in the SMI in 2008.
The Boston Common - Joshua Washington Smith
The goal of my personal narative was just to show and display with great detail how important the boston common and fanueil hall is to me. and that was pretty much it.

Harvard Yard - Abdullah Balla
My name is Abdulla and I am part of SMI. Our first project is a Personal narrative about Harvard Yard. I spent a lot of time there after moving from Syria to the US because I took summer classes there. I learned English there and that is why it is important to me.
Excellent! Thank you and enjoy my project!

My Personal Narrative : Home Sweet Home
This is my personal narrative project that i had to do. It's about my home and how it's important to me and how much i love it.It took 3 weeks to make it and the most challenging part is the editing because it's a lot of work and I'm new to final cut pro so it's complicated. But I had fun doing it especially the shooting. :)

Dudley St. on Halloween
For the Summer Media Institute 2008 each person made a personal narrative about someplace that was important to them. I chose my block. One of the most important things about my block is Halloween, so I chose that as the focus of the project.

My personal Narrative is about the place that i go when i want to go away from everyone and the craziness that usually goes on in my life.So i chose to do this about my home because its the only place that i find peace and quietness.

My Personal Narrative...Final Product!
Hello everybody!
Finally my personal narrative is finished. Although it is not my best work I find it very emotionally interesting. The process of creating my project let me learn a lot about final cut pro, using the camera, and other things. I'm really excited that it's finished because now it's Final Project Time!
