Meteor Shower

Amazing what spending the night looking at the meteor shower can do for you!!!
The last time I saw the sky that clear, was in the desert in Mexico.
I can tell you that I don't remember the last time I was that cold.

Profile Information

For Students: Artist's Statement
For some reason Photography was something that I can do really easy since the first time I got my camera. The concept of light, camera angles, balance, color, where like second nature to me. I am blessed to have a brother that draws comics books. So, I actually learned photography through watching comic book.
Tell us something interesting about you.
Balance... Anything that is going to take me to have a life with abundance and balance between the spirit, the mind, and the body

Well, it's March and spring is upon us. The Media Diversity Council has come a long way in the last two years. We now serve almost 500 students and professionals across Texas and next Tuesday will be our second annual Show Your Reel Portfolio Awards at GSD&M Idea City. Students have attended our free tours of media companies and submitted their portfolios to be reviewed by professionals. We’ll recognize the best work and award our first cash scholarship.  

As with last year’s Show Your Reel finalists, students are eligible to become Media Protégés and participate in job shadow activities, service learning projects and internships. The video posted here is of Media Protégé Gabriel Leal on a job serving as the producer and video tech. Media Protégés broadcasted a live webcast to thousands of students across Texas from the George Bush Presidential Library & Museum in College Station on The Life of a Buffalo Soldier. .
