^ MultiMedia thus far.
Not exactly sure what happened to the photo quality once it hit youtube, but meh.
Yeah, I have phone/in person interviews mixed together. It was worse, but I used Audacity to clean it up a bit.

I used a lot of news photos and archival-type photos in order to tell the story for my multi-media assignment. I did take a ton of photos, however. Some of them didn’t fit into the time restraints for the assignment, so I’ve posted a good chunk of them here, complete with captions that correspond with the audio from the completed assignment.
-
- Drew recently got a new motorcycle since he rides three hours to Grand Island for club meetings.
-
- I have subliminally influenced the boyfriend to the point where he buys sparkly things.
-
- Drew patched into VNVLV / MC in 2012. “Red is for the blood we shed, black is for the mourning.”
-
- “I just don’t talk about it to people who doesn’t understand. No matter how hard you try, no one will get what we went through.”
-
- “There is no easy part of coming home. You go home to your own house, it’s too quiet.”
-
- The new motorcycle is hundreds of pounds heavier than his old bike, but it doesn’t phase him.
-
- Andrew only wears one spur. It’s a tradition that honors fallen comrades.
-
- I sew every patch onto Andrew’s vest, and by God, I was going to leave my non-club affiliated mark on there.
-
- Andrew isn’t very good at being intimidating and biker-y.
-
- At first, Andrew refused to salute because he had a goatee. Old habits die hard.
-
- As much as veterans would like to forget, most of them carry scars from deployments.
-
- Growing old is a privilege denied to many, especially those forward-deployed military members.
-
- Like many service members, Andrew got a tattoo to memorialize his lost friends.
-
- A small number of Drew’s medals hang in the front room of his family’s house. He shrugs them off and doesn’t see a point in telling stories about how he earned them.
