The Generation Connection Intergenerational Documentary: Year 7

Thu, 09/17/2009 - 23:07 -- Rhys

 

tgc_09tu_mp4.jpg7 summers, 35 Clips of the Day. The Generation Connection 7 wrapped up at the end of July with 5 new CODs shot and edited by tween-aged and senior citizen campers with one objective: communicate what makes the experience of exploring Central Florida with each other worth coming back for every year.

The return campers bring friends. Campers who got too old created the role of "jr. counselor" so they could stay involved. And the seniors keep coming back to get chased, share their wisdom, soak up some youth energy, and learn from the diverse lineup of community experts camp director Joel Daunic brings together to host us each year.

TMS is lucky to have been "in the van" again this summer, helping campers think critically about how to capture and emphasize their points of view for their audience using audio and video.

Bonus Clip: best example of critical thinking this summer

Kendrick in the Tuesday 2009 COD recognizes the potential of song lyrics on the van radio to help our video explain what he learned in a TGC golf trip. Edited by Matt the JC.
