Story of the Day 8/17/2011 #2



After lunch, Sarah’s first class is animation and Film Production.
It is a two period class that is taught at the J. Everret Light Career Center. JEL serves a number of school districts and offers business classes, car repair classes, dental technician classes and a variety of other programs. A few years ago, Aaron, Sarah’s older brother, also took a class at JEL. He took Radio and Television Production. That class is no longer offered, since radio technology has gone the way of the Edsel and all those 45s- which contrary to what people under 20 years of age believe are not guns.

There are 17 other students in the class and they will be working on a variety of projects, this semester.

The teacher assured them that there will be ample opportunities to earn extra credit. They can earn this extra credit by staying after school and dee-jaying for the school’s radio station.

Sarah thinks this might be a very fun way to earn extra credit. At first she thought, “I wonder how they will feel about my signing into the microphone?” and then, her second thought was, “I could sign very, very dramatically, and then the interpreter will have to match her voice/presentation to it!” Sarah thought this might be a lot of fun.

The interpreter, however, might not.
