The Digital Media Training Program
The purpose of this site is to publicize a multi-media project exploring Harlem's past and present told by the people who live in the community. The project is called Harlem Through My Eyes and it utilizes video oral histories, photography and animation to tell the story of this world famous community. It is being created by a group of students ages 14 to 21 under the tutelage of Melvin McCray, program director, of the Digital Media Training Program at MIST Harlem.
