Natalia Lassalle-Morillo, a visual artist and director based in Puerto Rico currently developing a film project in NYC  that centers around the Puerto Rican experience in the city. She will be facilitated by our volunteers with filming a scene which is staged at a canoe in the creek. The scene focuses on two performers that are canoeing down the creek while having a conversation. The director, the cinematographer and the sound operator will also be in the water. This might take around 1:30-2 hours on the water including some testing and multiple takes to figure out the best way to realize the scene.

RAIN DATE:

Currently it looks like the weather will be just fine. In case it won't be, same time on Tuesday Oct 10  -  pending film crew/trip leader availabilities. Also please note that finding a Back-up Trip leader might become totally essential! ANY TAKERS?

OFFICIAL PADDLERS  / PRIVATE TRIP PLANNERS - PLEASE TAKE NOTE:

The event requires our use of AT LEAST one 3-4 seater and two 2-seater canoes
