From http://www.gaycenter.org/out Last month the Center celebrated it’s final appearance on MTV’s Real World Brooklyn with a party. Housemates Baya, JD and Scott stopped by to talk to fans and tell us why they enjoyed volunteering at the Center. We’ll see more of Scott later this year when he rides with Braking the Cycle. If you want to become a member like Scott or volunteer at the Center go to gaycenter.org/support Distributed by Tubemogul.

Miracle on 13th Street appeared in the January 2007 show and was my first time operating a camera solo. The footage is from a volunteer appreciation holiday concert the month before. It was a challenging performance to film, since the lighting and sound was not designed for filming, but the performances more than made up for it, reminding me of one of the cardinal rules of video editing, "Audiences will tolerate bad video, but not bad audio." The singing is wonderful, which makes you overlook the visual imperfections and enjoy the holiday music.

The Ultimate Penalty was a trailer for a planned feature length documentary. Filming my first project, "The Meaning of Pride", with a fellow volunteer, we didn't expect to get such strong and compelling interviews, so the unused footage was to be incorporated into a feature length documentary using a painting of the execution in Iran of two gay teenagers as it's central theme.

Garden Party 23 was my first solo project after completing my training as a volunteer video producer. Garden Party is an annual fundraiser to benefit the NYC LGBT Center. With the music and comedy, it's always a fun segment to edit. I've edited Garden Party for the past 3 years in a row; this was my first. I noticed that our Mainstage and Roving cameras were filming Christine Ebersole at the same time, which I used for a split screen edit showing the same point in time from two different perspectives.

Meaning of Pride was the first project that I completed with a fellow volunteer after completing my training as a volunteer video producer. I worked on concept, camera, and editing, which made extensive use of scale, transparency, and vector coordinates. The segment appeared in the June 2006 show and was designed to be five one-minute "spacers" highlighting what Pride meant to people of various demographics. We didn't expect to get such strong and compelling interviews, so the unused footage was incorporated into another segment entitled, "The Ultimate Penalty" which appeared in October 2006 and which used a painting of the execution in Iran of two gay teenagers as it's central theme.

Anne Good encourages animal rescue groups to offer more modern apparel and to further utilize social media. She also calls on designers and artists, as well as social media users to volunteer their time helping shelters and rescue groups.

You know how it goes, you turn on your computer to find a new 'software update' is available to download. So you click to download and install it straight away, excited by the new features and envisioning a dream of a bug-free lifestyle - yes? Wrong! What are you an idiot or something? Fear change. It is there to funk up your beautiful calm existence. Don't be the first in there. Don't put your hand up and volunteer. Don't jump in with both feet, or even one foot. Let all the gung-ho fat-heads around jump in first to discover it was really a pool of acid. Those first out of the trenches are the first to be shot. I mean, be careful, otherwise you may find something 'interesting' happens in your life. And we don't want that, do we! As you can see this film also features Brian from Family Guy and a nice retro VHS copy of Monty Python's Life of Brian. I'll just say that again, it was Family Guy and Monty Python's Life of Brian - you know, just in case the web crawlers and search engines didn't pick it up first time :)
