Rally foundation for childhood cancer research

This week I had the amazing opportunity to operate a camera at the Rally foundation for childhood cancer research fund raising event at the Buckhead Theatre in Buckhead, GA. Along with more than 15 of my classmates at Chattahoochee Technical College in the Televison Production department we produced this event under the guidance and direction of Ian Feinberg and James Townley, both professional instructors at the school.

The “Rally Idol” event was designed around the same idea as the popular music television show “The American Idol”. All of the contestants of this event, however, were actual cancer patients (and very talented may I add) with the judges being past American Idol contestants. Bo Bice, Lauren Alaina, Haley Reinhart and Anthony Fedorov joined the event to help raise money in aid to battle childhood cancer.

I have had the opportunity to work with my classmates and instructors at several events but I must say that this was the most fun and energetic event that I have worked yet.

Thank you,
