Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I am continually inspired by my students’ creativity, dedication, and passion for storytelling through video production. They bring unique perspectives and innovative ideas to every project, making our classroom a vibrant space of collaboration and learning.

The Apple TV will enhance our ability to review and critique videos in real-time, facilitating instant feedback and collaborative discussions.

The HDMI cord will allow students to live stream events in the gymnasium. The Rode Lapel mics will provide professional-quality audio, crucial for clear and impactful storytelling.

These resources will empower my students to produce high-quality videos, boosting their technical skills and confidence. My goal for this project is to provide my students with the tools they need to bring their visions to life, preparing them for future careers in media and communication.

What makes my students special is their resilience and eagerness to learn. Every year my students raise the bar on the content they produce, and to be able to allow them to continue raising the bar, higher end equipment is necessary. By supporting this project, you will be investing in the future of these talented young filmmakers, helping them reach their full potential and share their stories with the world.
