Our first-ever student-produced television show will air
this evening, Saturday May 10, 2014 at 7 p.m. on local channel 16.
Check it out!
Produced by students in our videography expedition at the
Pegasys studio on State Street, New Roots Now! features news and interviews
with New Roots alumni, students, and staff members.
As the New Roots Now! hosts explain, our videography
expedition is a credit-bearing course offered at New Roots due to student
interest and initiative. A one-time
workshop offered in Summer 2012 grew into a Video Club and now a learning expedition course.
New Roots student videos have quickly found an audience beyond our school community. They have been featured on a variety of organizations’ web sites, including one Spanish
language video with international reach, and locally as part of the Get Your GreenBack Tompkins! campaign.
Powerhouse Spanish teacher Maria Gimma has supported the
initiative of students Soren Mortensen, Emily Feaveryear, Emily Murphy, Drew
Fenton-Bandurski, Mo Petkov, Irene Case, Antonio Triana, Caroline Syder and
Allison Lash in taking on this ambitious project. Not satisfied to rest on their laurels, they are already planning their next episode.
If you miss the first showing, don’t worry -- the episode
will rerun on Wednesday, May 14 at 7:00 p.m., Saturday, May 24 at 7:00 p.m.,
and Wednesday, May 28 at 11:00 a.m.
Enjoy!
