Hey Guys it's Merritt.
Me and Chelsea are at Infini.TO in Italy right now editing video from the Italian's visit to America. Both their visit and our visit to Italy so far have been so much fun! There's nothing better than getting to share memories and great food with amazing people. And of course, Italy is just miracoloso. I don't think I'll ever want to leave. Anyway, got to get back to work!
Ciao!

Karla: Being in Italy
After working so hard this year, we are finally in Italy. We all became friends when the Italian team came to LA. Now we are past the odd stage and are enjoying every minute of being here. I have fallen in love with Italy and the people. I'm actually coming back next summer and staying with Adele. I'm going to learn Italian. :D
We have made such a strong bond with each other. I will never forget this experience. I have felt more at home here in Italy than at LA after graduating from LSMSA.
The people, the hills, the food, the jokes, the memories are all unforgettable. I am going to miss everyone. I cannot wait to come back.
Thank you to everyone that made this possible. You have given us an experience of a lifetime.

Hey everyone!
It's Cari, one of the scripters for the project. We're about to get on our plane to Houston then on to Frankfurt and Torino. We're all very excited to see our Italian friends again!
It's crazy that the project is almost done. It seems like not long ago we were just getting started!
We will keep everyone posted!

In the Shreveport airport!
Hey, guys! It's Courtney, the project manager of the US team.
We are hanging out in the Shreveport airport right now and we are all very excited. We will travel to Houston and then from Houston to Frankfurt and then to Turin! Hooray!
I'm so excited right now...you have no idea. :) We are so excited that all of our hard work is paying off now.
See you guys soon!

Ready for Italy (I hope)
Alright. In a few more hours I will be on my way to Italy! I'm very excited about this trip and look forward to eating a real Italian cuisine (Italian is actually my favorite type of food). This project has allowed me to come into contact with a really talented pool of youth. Plus I was able to upgrade my social networking skills so I can keep up with their pace...LOL! I'm really amazed at how the film worked out. I hope we, Sci-Port, can carry out another project along the same lines. I can go on and on about all the posititives but I think I'll summarize by saying I am grateful to help out and I appreciate the opportunity.
While the Italians were here, I learned how to speak some Italian words, and, to self-deprecate, how to NOT speak some Italian words :-). I found out Emanuele enjoys hot and spicy food like I do, which was a big surprise to me because I'd heard of all these great meals/victuals that originate from Italy, and not once had I imagined their being hot sauce available. WOW! (BTW - thanks Emanuele for keeping the toothpick on your tongue long enough for me to take a picture.)
One thing I expect when over in Italy is to try to not to embarrass myself when we go walking in the Exilles. I would REALLY, REALLY, REALLY like to visit the Lamborghini plant in Sant'Agata Bolognese (FYI Lamborghinis are my favorite cars. I've loved them since childhood). There, I said it. I finally got that off my chest. I am looking forward to meeting all the VIP's. What I hope to bring back is a better understanding of the Italian culture and their customs - I'm mainly focused on the food.
The premiere was truly an unforgettable experience. I think it's the first time we've done a teen-only event at Sci-Port (or it is since I've been there). I thought it was great to see our young adults in Sci-Port - hopefully this is a spark to several to come back and a way to showcase Sci-Port is a facility that addresses all genres of age.
OK...I'll stop blogging now. Have to save room for the others :-P

Ready to Depart!
It's 7:30 am and I am ready to start my long journey to Italy. Over the past year I've learned a lot about teamwork, movie-making strategies, and scripting. I am excited to see my Italian friends for one last time. However, if I learned anything from this project, it is that I can still keep in touch with the Italians in America. I am sure that I'll learn a lot and have a lot of fun in Italy! Well I have to go soon. See you in Italy!
