Operation 42

Operation 42 was an attempt at creating a documentary about CTY by current and former CTYers. It was initially planned as a full-length feature with clips from the program and interviews, but was ultimately never completed due to its creators no longer having the time to work on it, although footage that was shot for the purpose of being used in the documentary exists. It is currently being rebranded as a smaller effort independent of the original production team.

It was for a period of time spearheaded by Kenjiro and Jaeho Lee, John Isaac Boland (Hatman!) and Raj Shrimali, and is being organized on Facebook right here

History

On the CTY Facebook group "MLICTY: My Life Is CTY", the existence of the unproduced "Nerd Camp" movie from Nickelodeon was brought up. Danny McClanahan proceeded to bring up a bizarre storyline for a CTY movie (which many joked would be called "Bizarre Love Triangle"). An idea was brought up about creating a documentary webseries based on CTY...

Goals

This documentary serves three purposes: one is to help nomores relive their experiences, two is for people who want to see the traditions of another site, and three is for people who are interested in coming in the future.
