Park Slope 16-year-old, Derek Garcia, won 1st place in BCAT’s BK4Reel competition for best short film by a high school student.
BK4Reel is the only show on television that features and promotes the work of Brooklyn teenage videographers (9th-12th graders).
Well, we couldn’t be more proud.
Derek is a really good guy. And he’s clearly got a great eye. Take a look at beautiful cinematography of Coney Island. Nice, nice compositions, DG.
The film is called "Brooklyn is Everything" and it’s about a boy’s solitary journey from his apartment in Park Slope to Coney Island. What a long, strange trip that is.

I watched the film, and it’s great.
