Re:

  1. Content: What is the issue, need, idea or opportunity addressed by this project? This project is addressing the teenagers of Oakland talk about the issues that affect their lives, sex, violence, families, school and the future. It is so their voices can be heard rather then stay hidden inside. Teenagers mostly don't have a voice in society and so this brings attention to that. Also turning teenage voices into a work of art. Teenage stereo types in the media.




2. Form: What medium and techniques were used to embody the content? 

She used teenagers from Oakland so you can hear them speak and express their ideas and thoughts. She also used cars where teenagers all sat in the cars and talked. She also used a roof top as the setting.




3. Context: What are the circumstances and setting that frame our understanding of this project? 

The circumstances of the setting and frame of understanding of this project is that it is taken place on a roof top in Oakland California and the performers are all intercity kids who live in Oakland. Suzanne explains in "THE ROOF IS ON FIRE" how media is what gives a judgement on these teenagers rather then for them to speak up for them selves especially in the circumstances of how and where they live and so this project will give them the opportunity to express all their feelings in which for once they will be heard solely from themselves. 



4. Stakeholders: Who can affect or be affected by this project?

The teenagers are the ones who affect the audience members, who would be adults in the city whom don't listen to the teenagers voices. Also the media in seeing how that not all stereotypes of these specific teenagers of Oakland. 


5. Audience or communities engaged: For whom and/or with whom was this project created? The media.


6. Engagement strategies: How were the stakeholders, audiences, and community members engaged in this project? How were the goals of the project advanced?

They were engaged by walking around the roof in watching these conversations happen between the teenagers. This kept them engaged in the conversation in listening.


7. Resources: What tangible or intangible resources were used to pursue the project's goals? The tangible resources were being able to use teenagers from that specific area of California and have them talk about there thoughts about deep topics today. The intangible resources were just what the kids would say and feel its unscripted so its unknown until it is said but it is still a resource for the topic being addressed. 


8. Goal: What are the project's objectives? The projects objectives were to reach the media in listening to these teenagers voices instead of just airing all these stereotypes on television and media. Not all kids from a specific area are the same. 


9. Outcomes: What were the results and the impact of this project? Did they match the goals? Yes they did because the teenagers were able to speak out and feel free to speak. Also people listened and so did it go out into social media to be spread.


10. Values: What were this project's guiding values and/or core beliefs? TO BE HEARD! TO LISTEN!
