The interview was conducted by New York Times critic Janet Maslin.

CSSP was started 40 years ago, with the aim of offering a 4-week long enrichment program to high achieving New York City students. For this year's Jacob Burns Film Center and CSSP collaboration took a class called "Reel Change" -- a course that teaches students how to create Public Service Announcements. As inspiration for the PSAs, students learned about a current teen themed PSA campaign from the Ad Council (www.adcouncil.org). The campaign that students made a PSA for is called Teen Digital Dating Abuse and looks at how cellphones and social media tools can be used to control and abuse in a teen dating situation. For the Teen Digital Dating Abuse campaign, the Ad Council created the That's Not Cool website (www.thatsnotcool.com) where viewers can find out more about the issue, "draw their own digital boundaries" and create guest videos in response to the campaign. The 4 films created by the 21 CSSP students each uses a "that's not cool" strap-line, and in their different ways, each tackles a different aspect of how digital tools can be used to control in a teen relationship.

Using The Sims 2 Bon Voyage and Pets and Corel Video Studio X2 I have created a simple yet great-as-a-masterpiece Music Video. It's mostly random but all of it contributes to a central theme: Life and Fun.
