The film was made possible through a CHNA 15 grant which funded “Lights, camera, Action!” a year-long series of improvisational workshops that introduced students with special needs from Burlington High School LABBB to filmmaking, idea development, screenwriting, editing, and cinematography. Interns from LABBB and NUPATH helped with behind the scenes things such as costumers, props, research, sound, and assistant directing. Help from two public access cable stations: BCAT – green screen studio and technology, and WinCAM‘s on-location lighting and sound equipment.
