Open Letter Project: A Virtual Letter to the President (VLP) Showing: Aisha

Produced by Anthony Marshall, Chelo Alvarez (CA), Sabrina Gordon (NY), Ian Skorodin (CA)

Tothepresident.com enables everyday Americans to share their views directly with the new president, his administration and millions worldwide. This user generated website will offer an alternative platform to the ways citizens have historically communicated with their president. The site will open with animation and voiceovers that will captivate the user and invite them to speak directly to the president. This letter will highlight the most important issues affecting the country today. It will provide hyperlinks to websites that address the different themes in depth. These issues will be reflected in an interactive poll and video player. This player will contain videos of everyday Americans of diverse backgrounds sharing their opinions and offering solutions about the issues that concern them most.
