GAP Media Project - a late hello!

Hello!
I am writing from the GAP media project! We are joining in on this conversation late in the game but are very excited to be adding our news. The GAP media project is based in Champaign, IL. We've had quite an interesting time working on digital stories and have just wrapped up two stories that will be sending to San Jose. We met every Saturday, working in a big, empty computer lab on the University of Illinois campus. Over the course of the past few months, the girls in the project have reflected on aspects of their lives and communities they wanted to tell as a digital story. Some decided that they didn't want to put their lives on tape while others chose to make video letters to family members from whom they had been estranged. We are excited to share what we've finished with all of you and will send more reflections as we wrap up the process.
Thanks for the interest!
Myra
