My Project

In today's technologically advanced world computers are everywhere and have become an integral part of our society. The film industry, and all of its workings, has become digital as well, including editing.

Our students rely heavily on the school-provided workhorse laptops (MacBook Pro 2012).

Some students bring their own but the majority cannot afford such luxuries.

When editing in class, laptops run out of power frequently and need to be charged during editing. These cables will provide the necessary power supply for classwork so the kids can focus on the work and not figure out how to charge their laptops.
