Q&A With Malaika Sparks

About (request update)

I was born in Brooklyn NY, then moved to Central Islip, NY, and ended up living in NJ for the last 6 years. I will be 16 in exactly 2 months from when I'm writing this (7/16/12) (my birthday is 9/16/12) I can't wait because I can get my permit to drive, and I will be going on a trip to the Bahamas! I'm really motivated to do good in everything I do. I personally am not a big fan of high school, I think its mostly just the people who make it not fun. I really can't wait for the college experience! What makes me special is that I LOVE editing and producing videos! Also making movies and/or mini TV shows for fun with my sisters and friends. I really want to major in Cinematography and Video Production.

Life & Professional Aspirations:

In the future, I want to see myself living a comfortable life (financially & generally speaking!) I want to enjoy what I do, and go to work excited. I really want to have a career in the movie/show editing business. I'm really interested in the behind the scene work, and how they put and edit and produce everything all together. I just love the behind the scene work, because its their job to put everything all together, and I think that feeling of seeing your work come together is amazing! For example, for movies or even live awards shows, you have the celebrities, etc. who get all the attention, but without all the behind the scene work, you have no show, you have no shock factor, you have no amazing backdrops and synchronizing music . You can do something so big and mainstream, but don't have to get that unwanted attention that celebrities get. I just get so excited and passionate when I talk about this stuff, haha, so I'm sorry for the long description! :)

Education (request update)

High School: Phillipsburg High Scool in Phillipsburg, NJ class of 2014

Best Memories:

So far, I really enjoy the football games! My school is number one in the state! So we have really good games, especially the infamous Pburg vs. Easton game (which is a 100+ year rivalry game with the school right across the Delaware River in Easton, Pa) (we actually had a special on TV where former football players came for a rematch, and Payton and Eli Manning were apart of it!) Also I really enjoy the Winter Gala and Homecoming game/dance Going to Washington D.C for my APUSH trip was also really fun!
