"It was a fun day on the set of PUSH when exec producer Sarah Siegel-Magness brought 8 children
from the Fresh Air Fund's Camp Mariah Career Awareness Program to take part in the filming.
Walking on the set was an exciting first for the local middle-schoolers, especially when Daniels "provided headphones for
all of them to hear what was being filmed, and gave all of them an opportunity to sit in his director's chair," Siegel-Magness said.
Coincidentally, while meeting the film's stars Paula Patton and Sherri Shepherd, and standout newcomer and Harlem native Gabi Sidibe, they also discovered that the first AD on the film was a past Camp Mariah instructor."
