This is the experience of how young people from different groups i.e., Music, Art, Poetry and Television Production all worked together to create a music video. This entire project was funded through RochesterWorks. (John Premo) to ArtPeace, Inc. (Kristin Rapp, Executive Dir.), as a part of their Creative Entrepreneurs program, where low-income youth from throughout Monroe County are employed to start businesses collaboratively in the arts, including multimedia and animation, music production and recording, and video production. Note Art Peace, Inc. became Sparq Rochester in 2013. The project was lead by veteran Broadcaster and Award Winning Producer/Director/Videographer/Editor Producer Richard J. McCollough, M.Ed. The crew was composed of 12 young apprentices from the inner city. Their ages ranged from 14-20. McCollough took them through the rugged 6 week course and exposed them to the professional way of creating a film product. Apprentices learned storyboarding, writing, videography, lighting, sound, editing and more.
