Hey y'all. It’s Deborah back at it again with another interview! I’m here with Valeria, Keyla, and Nailiany who are Freshmen at MVA, to help continue my interview series called, Following the Freshmen! Today’s questions are going to focus on the Film Club, as they are the film club founders and leaders!

Too lazy to read? Watch here! 💻

The first question I asked them was 'what are your role and responsibilities over at Film Club?'. Valeria said "I'm vice president of the club." Keyla said "I'm president of the club.", and Nailiany said "I'm the secretary of the club". I then asked them 'What inspired you to start the Film Club, here at MVA?' They said that when they went a ninth grade mixer/town-hall meeting they decided to make a club so they can talk to other people and connect with others. And they started thinking of a club where everyone can essentially join in. So they decided to make a film club. I asked 'What do y’all do over at Film Club?' they said they watch movies and then use software to create their own stop-motion and animation movies. I then asked 'Who should join the Film Club?' they said this is a club were everyone can interact and share heir feelings about movies. Its not only about watching movie, we also make our own films. SO people that should join are people that are interested in watching and making movies/films.

The next question I asked was 'How has the MVA experience been for you so far?', they said its been very exciting and welcoming because of the teachers and classmates. The teachers have been very welcoming in this new environment, especially since its remote. They also said that the teachers help you if you need help with anything. Nailiany added that its been really good and that she met great people. She also said that she had a great experience, for example creating and participating in film club. I asked them 'What could your teachers here at MVA do to make your first year at MVA more enjoyable?' Keyla said that teachers are already doing a great job. They said its been fun to be in the school because of all the programs. And that teachers have been very welcoming and supportive through out this whole year. They help students a lot and there's not much to add. They help with the students. They all are doing a really good job. And in this pandemic its hard for everyone, but they've been helping everyone.

I then asked 'If you had to change one thing about your fall/winter semester here at MVA what would it be?' I would change being able to go to school, but since we are quarantined its not really possible. I asked 'How has the workload been for you compared to your previous school?', Keyla said her previous schools was welcoming as well, but they are pretty equal. She said the teachers here are every helpful and welcoming as well. She also said I know I need help, they make it very easy to get and receive help. They all agreed. I asked at 'Anything else you would like to talk about or make aware to the MVA community?' they all said not at this time.

I hope y’all enjoyed this interview with Valeria, Keyla, and Nailiany. Don’t forget to comment and react below. Stay tuned for the next interview on Following the Freshmen!
