Interview with the Director of "Chess Movie"
Jennifer Shahade has posted an excellent Interview with the Director of Chess Movie (working title), the documentary project I've mentioned before and urged you to support (see "Chess Movie Preview" and "Support 'Chess Movie'"). As an admirer of the successful chess program at I.S. 318 and someone who has been involved in making videos myself (I am currently editing a 30-minute documentary based on about 100 hours of footage following five students through our freshman writing course at Rutgers), I know the sort of challenges that Katie Dellamaggiore has faced and the daunting task of editing that lies ahead. I wish her the best of luck and look forward to seeing the final product.
