Both Broguiere and Lo have been working in this video for a month now. “It’s been a lot of work but I enjoy working with audiom,” Lo said.  Lo said that he really like working with this music video mostly with the audio, but he’s not that sure what the video is going to look like since Broguiere is in charge of filming the video. “I like being part of the team that is doing the video even though Mr. Broguiere deserves the whole credit,” Lo said.

Both teachers think that the students will hopefully like the new video because it is going to be even better than last years’ music video, “Talk Nerdy to Me”, based on “Talk Dirty to Me” by Jason Derulo. “My deadline is to finish by Friday, May 1 2015,” Broguiere said. Monday 4/27-Tuesday 4/28 he was filming parts of the music video with AJCMS students, and on Wednesday 4/29 he was filming the teachers, so by Thursday he just added the finishing touches and to be able to finish by Friday May 1, to be shown in a rally that will be held in the school gym.
