Back in February Elaine Odell and assistant Graham Ohmer spent the day at Bellevue School at the request of the PTA:
A whole lot of learning going on! […] Vero Media (with assistance from Church Hill Studio, LLC,) was asked to create imagery for the Bellevue Elementary school website.
Elaine Odell along with VCU Film School undergrad, Graham Ohmer, spend the day at Bellevue. Thankfully, PTA President, Doug Brown, was with us every step of the way.
The kids were amazing. Well behaved, focused and curious. And the teachers were all kind, patient and truly enthusiastic about their students. Here are just a handful of the amazing images we captured that day. We proudly delivered over 100 still images to the PTA last week. Look them soon on the Bellevue School website soon.
This shoot is the first phase of an ongoing project with Bellevue Elementary and Richmond Public Schools as Vero Media continues to explore education in our inner-city schools.
Vero Media is a non-profit corporation whose goal is to produce more documentaries and imagery/sound for good causes and worthy community programs. The project with Bellevue is one of their first assignments.

Great! Now do this for Chimborazo and Woodville.
Trish, we’d love to work with Chimborazo or Woodville. But the school/PTA has to want to do it, too. It takes a little coordination on their part to be sure we know which the student’s are photo-released and which ones are not. The forms are in the school office and someone has to check that out in advance of the shoot.
If you know folks at either school, who might want us to create multi-media for the school’s use, please encourage them to contact me. Thanks!
