Youth PSA-in-a-Day Workshop

In this two-hour hands-on production workshop, participants use video cameras and their collective creativity to create public service announcements (video messages.) The session begins with an overview of media literacy and the language of video including camera shots, points of view, and cuts. Participants work together to brainstorm ideas, storyboard, and shoot their PSA's. This workshop is not intended to create broadcast quality videos, but rather teach youth basic production skills around concepts of socially responsible media.
