1. What was the most difficult part in making this video?
We had a great team and everyone brought something to the table. If I had to decide what the most difficult thing with this video was I would have to say trying to incorporate six different ways Champlain is being green.

2. Other than finishing it, what was the most rewarding moment in making this video? I found presenting it in class was the most rewarding. Particularly when someone in the class room said it took "big kahonas" to present this film the way we did, acting a scene rather then doing it documentary style.

3. Discuss 3 specific things you learned about film production and/or group process in making this video. 1) The five second rule, and the more I look for it the more i see it every were .2) Don't try to put the video quality of a flip-cam up against Hollywood. 3)That your idea is not always the best. you need to take everyones ideas into account.


4.Discuss 3 specific things you learned about Champlain College and/or the "Sustain Champlain" project you did not know about before completing this project
Before we started I did not know anything about Sustain Champlain. Everything I've learned about Sustain Champlain has opened my eyes. the green roof I thought looked cool helps with heating and air conditioning bills. The compost goes full circle and ends up back at Champlain as potting soil. And for bikers not only do we have bike racks all over campus, but we also have a shower facility.
