Here it is, my first PSA. I am a little reluctant to share it with you, because it is not perfect. I think that is the nature of making videos (or writing or making pots...); you can spend a lot of time trying to polish them. Yesterday, I spent all day learning about videos and working on this one, which I had to submit before the end of the day.

We were happy to be invited to a going-away party for the Benders at Janna's house and brought a salad for it. But I was still in the zone, with videos on the brain. And I didn't know a lot of the people there well. So I had this idea to videotape the guests' memories of and wishes for the Benders. I even sent Ray to buy new tapes and a tripod, to make sure I had good quality footage. It went pretty well--some people really liked the idea, some refused to participate. We'll see. I don't think it will end up being one of my assignments--it's longer than 60 seconds for sure...and there are not a lot of skills involved in filming and editing a series of comments by people sitting in the same place. I certainly don't think it would qualify as educational. We'll see when I start working on it.
