Malik M., an eighth grader at YOUMedia Richard M. Daley Branch, has been a faithful participant across mediums for over a year. Keen on art, he has translated his drawing skills into graphic design, utilizing Photoshop, Illustrator, and Bamboo drawing tablets. He has started to experiment with video too, even creating a series of drawing “how toʼs” and video game play guides with iMovie and YOUmediaʼs flip cameras. Though we sometimes miss him due to his intense study and swimming regiment, when heʼs able to come he is a fantastic member of the YOUmedia community!

The creative teens at Youmedia Chicago made their own Harlem Shake version - with clay. Special shoutouts to Jameson and Gustave for the work. Get funky.
