During the summer of 2011, Cheng Yi contributed to UCLA REMAP by participating in the creation of REMAP’s logo. He also assisted Fabian Wagmister in the shooting and editing of interview videos for REMAPPING L.A.. Cheng Yi was also involved in the pre-production phase of Recoding Innovation, a NSF funded documentary which REMAP worked alongside Eyes of the World Media Group to produce.
