LA River - Meet the Students
Meet Renee
Meet the Youth Voices Student Producers from L.A. Leadership Academy through their "Meet Me" PowerPoint presentations. It's a straightforward but powerful process where the students represent who they are through found or personal images. It's a great way for students to present themselves and their interests, learn their strengths and weaknesses as media producers, and get a glimpse of the technological tools they'll be using throughout the Departures project.

A major part of this production involves students using visuals to tell the story of their relationship to their neighborhood, so what better way to begin than with an exploration of the self? So, come and meet our LA River student producers!
