Kromrey’s Principal Dom Ricks by Oliver Gerharz

COURSE: Journalism 425: Video Journalism MEDIUM: Video/Film DESCRIPTION: An interview with the principal of Kromrey Middle School, the biggest in the state. Also features shorter interviews with Dom’s son and his friend. ARTIST’S STATEMENT: I think that this is the best video I made for this class, which required weekly submissions like this. I think it has a great window into what Dom is struggling with, how he is pushing past that, and what makes him a uniquely qualified and incredible principal of such an important school.
