Did you know that weathercasters don’t actually see the map behind them? They stand in front of a blue or green screen and the weather forecasts are incorporated afterwards. Here is Whitman’s weathergirl Miah having some fun with the weather. We also have a lesson in Jamaican slang right before we are magically transported to Jamaica for the quickest dance party in history. Finally, the Whitman crew drives through the Hollywood Hills spotting celebrities. Anything is possible with a blue screen!

BCAL Saturday- Butterfly Project
At BCAL we made butterflies to represent the children that were lost in the Holocaust. These butterflies were sent to The Holocaust Museum in Texas where the butterflies will eventually compose a breath-taking exhibition scheduled in the Spring of 2014. They will be put up in a gallery where everyone can notice all that has passed away.
If I could fly i’ll touch the sky,
if I could fly i’ll be closer to GOD,
if I could fly i’ll be so high,
Man I wish I had wings so I could try.
