KettleCorn Video Remix Proposal

For this assignment my proposal for the KettleCorn Video Remix is to cover the Steel City Stampede at Lernerville Speedway in Sarver,PA. This event is held every year which is becoming bigger and bigger each year. It is also referred to the "last weekend to play" referring to it being the last weekend for dirt car racing in western Pennsylvania. It brings not only drivers from many states but also fans. The Stampede is held over three days where different events are held on each night. To cover this event I will be attending one of the main nights over the weekend. This event is held Oct. 23-25. Also I will be able to locate what happens in different locations at the speedway.

If however something happens and I can not cover this event, I'm also looking into covering an on-going news event involving gas wells and the Mars Area School District. The only problem with this is being able to attend and find out when meetings are.

Pittsburgh Penguins Home Opener

Want a quick recap on what all happened at the Pittsburgh Penguin's Home Opener through my eyes as a fan? Check out the following timeline and what I did on Oct. 9 2014 for the start of the 2014-2015 Pittsburgh Penguins Ice Hockey season! This project I found was very fun but also hard to capture everything and move around the facility. Overall I felt like this was an amazing event to capture for not only Slippery Rock students but overall Penguins fans and hockey fans of all ages. I attend several games and this is mainly what I'll do at them and I even captured some quick entertaining videos!
