My Experience at the Gene Siskel Center: WEEK 1

One unexpected thing that I've experienced at my PIE is having to make phone calls to different Chinese organizations around Chicago to get them to spread the word about a movie called White Snake. White Snake is a Chinese animated film, and our goal is to make sure it's an open house and people buy tickets. This was unexpected for that day because I thought I would mostly be doing emails or writing letters but they had me make phone calls and actually ask these organizations of they could try to share the film with others.

Week one works toward my goals because I'm connecting with people through the media to get them to watch films. One of my goals is to be more connected with different people and I'm able to do this through sharing films.
