Title: The new iGlisson for camp Glisson and How it was made
By: aus10
Description: This is the iGlisson countdown that was used for the last 4 weeks of SLR. We even included a "How iGlisson was Made". To make iGlisson, you need video editing software that allows you to chroma key, threshold to black, and adjust colors in a video. It took about 15 min to edit and add effects to 1 min, so it took about an hour to make iGlisson. If you have any questions on how iGlisson was made, email us at contact@lanieryouth.org.

Title: Greenbelt: a Utopia
By: jamestertheog
Description: Greenbelt, as one of the most successful co-operatives in the country, has maintained the authentic small-town community feel that it was designed for back in the '30s when FDR's New Deal set up the greenbelt towns. Close to both D.C. and Baltimore, yet quietly tucked away in a wooded "utopia," Greenbelt is a cool town to live in, rich in history and small-town tradition. I made this in about a week between work, so it's a little rushed.
