Lisa Blok-Linson: So now we had a group of students that we
could guide through the hotel with storyboards and cameras.
Location manager docents led the way, explaining how to photo-
graph beauty shots and create panoramas on film!
Ilt Jones: It was great to see the inner light of creativity spark up
within these kids who had no previous exposure (no pun intended)
to cameras or people like us.
Karen Gilbert: I remember going upstairs with Steve
Weisberger and Kathy McCurdy. She was wearing her gas mask
because the hotel was really musty. It really felt haunted!
Diane Friedman: The first day, we worked with the students,
the second day, location professionals were invited to document
the decay. When the student photos came back from the lab, we
worked with them in their classroom to help select their best shots
and paste together their pans. We then held several workshops,
pasting up enlarged photos on boards that would be displayed at
the exhibit.
