New documentary receives positive feedback

We've all wanted, at some time, to go back to school to connect with the past. We were proud to have completed the first school documentary for Elida Local Schools in Northwest Ohio called Reflections of Elida. The fundraiser for Elida High School is a documentary on the history of their 100 year old school building on the eve of it's demolition for a new building that opened this September.  "We had a great response to the project from alumni and administration, as well as media coverage." said John Ondo, filmmaker and producer of the project. "History needs to be embraced and we hope to create more projects like this to schools all over the country, the alumni have embraced not only the documentary but the social media and the fact that this film is helping future Bulldogs continue their education" Ondo is not only the producer of this film, but an graduate of the school himself.  "There nothing more terrfiying than bringing a piece of your work back to show your former teachers and mentors, it's like the those nightmares we've all work up to. Despite that, I think the film has turned out really well." You can see commmets on the documentary at elidamemories.com as well as elida memories page on facebook.
