YEAR FOUR BUSINESS CARDS

Media Stormers

Students in our 12th grade Mediastorm class produced multimedia narratives for clients this year. The course focused on new media including the ever increasing use of multimedia narratives. Check out the group that worked for The Lower East Side Ecology Center. LESEC wanted a video produced that would showcase their EcoBizNYC campaign. The EcoBiz team hit the streets of the Lower East Side to interview local business owners who had participated in the program. The video will be featured on the LESEC website.

This on-going, student-driven project currently consists of a wood shop as well as a greenhouse and deck that are close to completion. Future plans include building planters and a food kiosk for community events. Rooftop Design Village is a hands-on learning experience that adds a real-world component to the New Design curriculum.
