The AVID/TOPS Program – Madison West High Sschool

Yesterday’s gig at the greatest high school known to humankind.

Spent the day at West High filming a piece about the remarkable AVID/TOPS program. Big shout out to American Family Insurance and their Dreams Foundation and the Boys & Girls Club of Dane County for their support of this great program that truly helps students.

I met some fantastic students and some amazing teachers at West.
And by the way when I am King of the World, I will automatically double all teacher’s salaries. These folks work their butts off to help their students.

Speaking of students, my Co-Director for the day, Nyshun, is in this image helping me check the light. He was calling “Action” like a pro and he’ll probably be directing features on his own soon.

Great big thanks to our wonderful producer, Danielle Borneman.
She was perfect as a first time producer. Notes for Danielle: 12 mins for lunch? Perfect Producer work, but to really get the gig down you have to yell at me much more! 🙂
