Video Project

For the video project, my involvement included participation in brainstorming, capturing footage, and meeting with the group for final edits. I really enjoyed working with my team on the project - I thought we worked well together and everyone helped in some way. I believe our video demonstrates what a third place is, as well as a clear example of one seen in College Library.

Group 3 Video


Here's our video. We started out interviewing people, asking them how important the internet was in their lives... then we had a revelation, and we decided to try living without the internet (except for Learn @ UW and WiscMail) for three days to see what's it's like for people who don't have the same access we do.

The group members were Emily Kesner, Max Lohnhardt, Will Mayberry, Megan Moore, Lisa Moser, and Sara Newhouse.
