Eighteen-year-old Brent Garner was ahead of his time.
Garner began making videos for class projects while in elementary school, long before the mass popularity of YouTube and MySpace.
But he isn't dabbling in videos just for fun. Garner, a senior at Trinity High School, plans a career in filmmaking.
He recently won second place in a national video competition sponsored by the Association for Career and Technology Education. Two videos were selected from more than 80 submitted.
Garner's video We are the Future is a public-service announcement for a national campaign to promote the association in Alexandria, Va. The group focuses on advancing education that helps prepare students for various careers, according to its Web site. Garner will also receive a complimentary copy of Apple Final Cut Studio 2 software, which is valued at more than $1,200. The software features a professional-level film editing program.
