The Bonner Video Project aims to use video as a tool to promote community service on college campuses. Students will create 2-3 minute videos about their Bonner programs, community partners, training activities, and issues encountered. The best videos will be shown at the Bonner Film Festival during the SLI conference in June 2009. Awards will be given out for best films in each category and most viewed online. Students are provided guidelines on filming, submitting videos, and obtaining necessary media releases.
