STUDENTS FILM SCENE AT HEMPSTEAD POOL
|
| When it came to filming a sequence where a classroom
at Fulton School is flooded during a thunderstorm, the Fulton Films
crew and actors went to Hempstead High School. Special thanks to
Mr. Tom Meissner, Hempstead Activities Director, who helped coordinate
the filming on March 9, 2006. CLICK

| "Brainstorm" is coming to life, thanks
to many talented Fulton School actors and actresses. One of our very
own staff members, Mr. Russell, appears in the film as mysterious
weather man "Mr. Sunshine". Check out these behind the scenes
pictures as cameras started to roll on the movie in February. |

WATCH:
NO PRESSURE, NO PRESSURE!
|
| No pressure when auditioning for parts in "Brainstorm",
that is. In January 2006, dozens of Fulton fifth graders tried out
for parts in the upcoming movie. CLICK

WATCH:
THERE'S NO BUSINESS LIKE "SNOW" BUSINESS
|
| Just another typical day at Fulton School. Fifth
graders sitting in their desks...in the snow! Vehicles driving down
Central Avenue might have done a double-take, watching as an entire
classroom of students sat shivering at their desks. It was all part
of a scene for the upcoming movie "Brainstorm" in which
weather goes wild inside a school building. It was Mrs. Rothert's
class that had the distinction of participating in this unusual lesson.
As you can see by the photos, Mrs. Rothert forgot her boots, so she
wore the next best thing: plastic bags over her shoes. CLICK
