1. ‘St-University’ – Social Action Video
My reason for following this production through is that I’m really wanting to give
an understanding of other elements of University to students aged 17-18. I want
to enlighten them on things other than tuition fees and high costs that the media
persist on shoving in their faces. I will portray things such as social and night life,
additional activities, opinions of existing and ex-university students etc. One
main reason for choosing this topic is that there are plenty of students at The
Henley College that get very lackadaisical when it comes to applying to
university. By creating this video it will hopefully put the prospect of University
in a new perspective of the eyes of students and hopefully encourage them to at
least apply to a university.
The production will last approximately 5 minutes. This will allow me time to
include all my interviews, shots of The HENLEY College and archive footage.
The people that will be interviewed for my video are:
• Sarah Wilson – The HENLEY College, Teacher
• Julian Brinsford – The HENLEY College, Teacher
• Zach Millward – The HENLEY College, Student
• Georgina Nelson – The HENLEY College, Student
• Ashley Davies – Ex-University Student
• Callum Parfitt – Student at Brighton University
My production will filmed from the angle of the Students that attend The
HENLEY College, Giving the audience a small insight to what life is like as a
student. Also letting the audience see how students are constantly pounded by
negative information concerning university.
My video will start with a montage of news clips concerning university fees and
extortionate costs. Then it will have it will have University students talking about
the benefits of University and what’s good about it. Then I will have the
interviews of The Henley College teachers explain why students should go.
Finally I have a compilation of all the interviews all saying what a opportunity
and experience University is.
My target audience is for students aged between 17-18 year olds. But also it will
be good information for parents of students that have questions about
University.
Once filmed and finalized, I will upload my video to YouTube. There it can be
2. publically viewed via online social Medias such as Facebook and Twitter. I will
also upload it to The HENLEY College website so that all the students at The
HENLEY College can have easy access to it.
