Each storyteller is given a paragraph on what the team knows about their subject. Here is what was given to Courtney.

Erika Fucaraccio is a Chilean graduate from SCA. She began attending in 1989 when she was in the 6th grade. Now, her boys attend SCA to receive the same Christian influence she received.”

Doing a pre-interview before sitting down and capturing her subject on camera helped Courtney dig deeper and find the emotional impact of the school on her.
