expo

The hardest thing during expo was determining what shots you need and what is considered a "good shot". What I felt after I accomplished expo was that I was proud of myself. Some of the most random moments was seeing the celebrities in a different light. The most exciting moment was the teen bling concert and helping shoot that. This year expo was more organized then then the previous years. What I look forward to in the future is doing the same thing but better. :)

My experience with IBE

The hardest thing fir me was making the history documentary. The research, gathering content, and editing, was hard but I can truly say that it made me a better editor and for that I am truly grateful.My feelings after the documentary was over were that I was happy and very proud of myself.

Some of my most random moments were seeing some of the crazy outfits at expo and seeing the celebrities in unexpected moments.I was the most excited when I got to interview Pam Grier because of what she meant to the black community and to women.

Something that was different from this year compared to previous years was that I was much more organized and there was a sense of unity. With new leadership can new accomplishments.

The overall environment with IBE was safe, I think that the parents have to step up and take the responsibly for their youth because it's the only way we are ever going to change the image of the community. We have to invest in and guide our children. Instead of disregarding them, love them, and show them how renew the confidence in themselves.

In the future I want IBE to be even bigger on the national scale, covered on by networks like Entertainment Television and BET.

I'm glad that the founders established this organization over for decades ago, because it's something that benefits people from all walks of life and will continue to make a lasting impact in lives for years to come.

ibe experience

expo weekend was awsome i had a lot of fun but getting up early was the hardest thing for me to do all weekend after i got everything i had to do i felt good this is my 2nd year at expo and this was better than last year i had lots of fun i like this year because we got stuff done and didnt slack off i was determined to get my work done and i actually got it done teen bling was fun
i love the environment that expo brings at the gospel explosion i herd bishop eddie long say that people told him that they should shut down expo my only response to that was that expo is keeping kids out of trouble why would you want to shut it down i dont know i really like it here at expo

IBE EXPERIENCE

The hardest thing for me during the Expo weekend was getting up early and going from place to place to different events. My feet were hurting pretty bad that Thursday on the Corporate Luncheon. After the events that I did, I felt really proud of myself because I was in such close contact with different celebrities. The most random thing at Expo was at the Hyatt seeing Big Tigger in the elevator and he was talking in a silly accent. I don't know what accent it was, but I was laughing the whole time. I was most excited for the Corporate Luncheon seeing that it was going to be my first time going to it. I was excited to see what it was going to look like and to see the celebrities get there awards. I worked here last year as a student. I think last year was a little better than this year when it came to Teen Bling. Yeah Mike Epps, Clifton Powell and other people were there, but we had a lot more people come last year than this year. As for IBE doing something to have a safer environment, there's not a lot that they can do. Having hundreds of officers there is probably the only thing that they have going. What I look forward to is having IBE have better line ups for the Teen Bling. And I would like to say that I enjoy my time at IBE. I enjoy the people and the environment that it brings.

IBE SUMMER CELEBRATION YVI360

I started this program only knowing talent but now that months have went by i could possibly teach you how to edit with final cut pro and even film whatever is given to me. I feel that i've accomplished so much within the last few months preparing for summer celebration. I felt pressure at first once i was told i had to work on the Mike Epps Corporate Luncheon video because i had no clue how to edit and on top of that it's MIKE EPPS so it had to be right. Once I was taught how to edit I felt that I was going to do great on the video. I felt great once the video was complete and saw the expressions on Mike Epps face once he saw the video. It was also nice to hear his feedback about the video which made me proud of myself. Expo weekend was just amazing because it opened up so many opportunities for me especially being with YVI360! It was great because i got to do what i have a passion for and what i love and im thankful for that!

the hardest thing for me was learning final cut pro and wakin up early in the morning. I was super excited when i started to understand final cut pro made me feel like i was doing something. It was 3 most random moments i had experienced. One was when Donaze attempted to dance the 2nd thing was when Will from Day 26 kept saying hi to me and i was accidentally ignoring him lol. And the last random moment was when Olivia and I ran into Mike Epps brother on the hotel elevator and had a long and funny convo. The best part was the basketball game and the teen bling. Something that IBE could do to make a safer environment is to have more teen activities since they are the ones who cause the most problems or be even more strict on the teens. I really had fun during this whole experience! I learned new things, met new people, and had a great time. The best part was me actually being on the scene while everything was happening. That was really exciting. Ben, Starla, and Matt it was amazing working with you all and i appreciate all the time you all put into helping and working with us. YVI was very exciting and hands-on and i will most definitely do it again! thank ya much for errrrrthanggg lol much love sabrina ! p.s. YU AINT GOTTA NUN MONEY !
