Alex Shea's big day

My partner Kevin and I are going to be interviewing film maker Alex Shea about his most recent snowboard film "The Weekend," which premiered last Saturday at the outing club in Lyndonville, VT. This was a big day for Shea since the film was sponsored by snowboard outer wear company "FACE". The company "FACE" was started by Shea's good friend and LSC alumni Steve Mahon. The film features both ski and snowboard riders from the group known as the "VILLEBILLIES". During this interview not only will we be talking to Shea about the creation of this film from start to finish, but also we'll be learning a little about Shea himself and what got him into independent film making.

Pod Casts

The reason I chose the NPR podcast was because it seemed informative and at the same time fun to listen to. I liked it because it was recommended by some of my professors, but also because it was one of the most top rated pod casts. I plan on continuing on listening to NPR's pod casts since they are entertaining as well as a good source of news. What I didn't like about the podcast was how long it was, I wish it could be more compressed. Other than that I have no complaints about the podcast. I have put the NPR podcast on my iphone so I can listen on the go.
